Help needed.

Hi Guys.

I have one stupid question but I cant fix it.

I would like to make a square with round corners with certain Radius. I use Rectangular Marque Tool with Feathering set to some value.

The thing is that when I cut the shape from Layer I dont get a sharp corner but instead I have shaded corner.

Can anyone help me please? Thank you a lot!.

Instead of using the marquee tool use the shape tool with a fixed size

Thank you. That was quick But I thnik I could do it also with Rectangular Marquee tool. Never mind now its working.

Thx

Yes possible but I was thinking you were Feathering the selection good luck

Am I missing something? Why would you want to use a tool for something for which it's not intended? The rectangle marque tool simply isn't the proper tool to do what you describe.

If you need a selection, use the rounded rectangle shape tool set to path, then make the path a selection.

Ok I understand.

But I have a question. What tool will I use when I want to erase certain area? Then I have to use this Rectangle Marquee Tool to select this area and erase. But I’m getting this shady effect also then.

 

[iDad]

is the layer set for drop shadow? you may want to show sample, instead of guessing game

Here ist an example what I'm talking about.

 

[Next3]

The layer is not set for Drop shadow

 

[iDad]

What do you mean by shaded

 

[iDad]

try duplicating layer is the shading getting fainter with each layer?

 

[Next3]

There is no sharp edge.

 

[iDad]

not understanding here, do you mean the outside is not deleting?
