Feathering in Pixelmator is very much off regular topics. However nobody seems to have explained how you do this so here goes.
Step 1: Use the Wand tool or a Selection tool to select the image you wish to feather
Step 2: Click Edit => Refine Selection
Step 3: Choose the amount which you would like to feather by & click OK
Step 4: Click Edit => Invert Selection
Step 5: Click Edit => Clear OR Hit backspace
That’s it really very simple. I stumbled across this and couldn’t find any resources or guides feathering in Pixelmator hence this quick post.
I just cannot do this?!! I’ve searched help sites and still cannot figure out what in the world am I doing wrong? I followed exactly the above. When I hit Invert Selection the selection tool has ants around my selected picture and the border of the background layer. When I hit clear, nothing seems to happen. So I have the selection tool ants still selected and I still cannot see any feathering either 🙁
Any suggestions?!
