Feathering Lasso selection edges

[MartyS]

Unless I tried it incorrectly???....It would be nice to be able to feather the hard edges of the lasso selections you apply changes to in the prescan image.

When correcting selected areas it is important to have a soft blending into the surrounding image.

Just a thought.

Thanks

Dear Marty.

Please open the option dialog and go to the general panel. Set the "mask edge size" to any other value than 0.00. The unit is inch, the valid range is 0.00 .. 1.00. A soft mask is then used inside the given mask with the given distance.

Hello Eric,

I dont see a "mask edge size" you mention when I go to Option/General .

Could it be that I am using release Ai 5.5.2r20 ?

Thank you for yor response and assistance on this.
