Landscape to Panoramic in CS4

[Hot Opal]

I know a landscape can be stretched into a panoramic in CS4 but can a "Guru" explain where to find the tools & how to do it please.

You can't "stretch" a landscape into a panoramic. However, if you have several photos covering the entire area you want to turn into a panoramic. You are in luck. let me know if that is the case and I will look up a tutorial I watched on the subject.

G'day 66
I was at a presentation on CS4 and the guy showed it but I can't remember where the tools are & I didn't write it down.

Autostitch but you need several pictures taken from one point and autostitch will stitch it together

G'day Guys,
The photo stitch is great however the process I was asking about is called "content aware scaling" I think!!!
If that is the correct terminology my question is: how do I find the tools & how is the best way to use it?
Can anyone direct me to a tutorial?
Thanks.

Hi Hot Opal,

You can access Content-Aware Scaling by clicking on Edit, and it will be in the drop-down menu.

However, I just learned about it myself, and I don't think it applies to what you want to do, but it wouldn't hurt for you to try.

G'day GKLee
I guess content aware scaling is not what I was after unless there is a secret to using it!!!

 

[GKLee]

Nope, unless any veteran wants to correct me, but content aware scaling is mainly for people.

By the way, I should have made "Cold Diamond" my username. LOL

Hi Guys,
The answer to my question "IS" CONTENT AWARE SCALING.
However if you want a section to be unaffected you mask that particular section before scaling.
Thanks for the help.
