Hey guys, first post (w00t!).


Anyways, I have some text over a transparent background. I used a brush to brush on a texture (in red color), but the texture also goes off of the text and onto the transparent background. Is there a way I can just take out the text with that pattern on it, but leave the pattern that isn't on the text?



Thanks...

Hi OwNaGeR,
Not sure what you mean..

If you want to mask pattern outside the text:
- Hold down [Alt] key
- In the Layers palette, click the line between the "text" and "pattern" layers




If you want to copy the painted text to other image:
- In the Layers palette, [Ctrl]-click the text layer thumbnail to select opaque pixels
- Pull down "Edit > Copy Merged"
