Fading Your Healing

 

*Adobe Bridge CS4 and Adobe Camera Raw 5 Tip*

In Photoshop, when you want to reduce a blemish, a popular technique  is to use the Healing Brush tool to completely remove the blemish, then go under the Edit menu, choose Fade Healing Brush, and then lower the Opacity in the dialog, so a little hint of the blemish comes back.  You can now do the same thing in Camera Raw when using the Spot Removal tool ( B ).  But it’s even easier in Camera Raw because there’s now an Opacity slider that appears in the Spot Removal panel.

Creating Place Scale Markers

You know those scale markers they have on maps that say that 1″ equals 1 mile? Well, Photoshop can create something called Scale Markers. These are measurement guides that are created based on the measurement scale you use. Once a measurement scale is established, go under the Analysis menu and choose Place Scale Marker. In this example, I have established my measurement scale to interpret 100 pixels as 1″ in a file that’s 10″ wide at 100 dpi. So if I want to create a 3″ scale marker, then I would enter 3 in the Length field. I can also choose to display text as a label for the marker. You can choose its color and placement depending on the file.
