Comments If you have an active selection in your image and choose Filter > Liquify, the Liquify filter will automatically turn the selection into a mask allowing you to manipulate the area within the original selection while masking (or freezing) the unselected area. If you need to manipulate the area outside of the original selection (instead of the inside), in the Liquify dialog, be sure to have the Advanced Options showing and click the “Invert All” button under the Mask Options.
Julieanna, you are the top! And a handsome person too. If I weren’t a 65 y.o. guy, I’d be proposing to you
Thanks for all the great tips and tutorials. It’s always such a pleasure to read or listen to you. Best wishes, be happy and keep on shining.
Julieanne,
if I have a selection and go to “liquify”, I only see the selected area of the picture in the liquify dialog box. If I click the “invert all” button, the red mask fills the whole selected area to freeze it. But since I don`t see the whole picture, I cannot manipulate the area outside the selection.
Are you in PSCS6?
Julieanne,
I`m using CS6 and CS5. Both behave the same. Maybe you can show a video of how you do it. BTW. your videos are absolutely great!
