Newbie question #345:
Can someone set me straight on clipping paths and when their effect is shown?
I have a background layer and I copy in a new image on it. I select the new layer and make a selection of part of it using the magnetic lasso.
I select Make Work Path from the right-click menu.
I select that path from the paths panel and select Save Path from the paths pallete menu and name it Path 1.
I select Clipping Path… from the pallete menu.
From here on I’m lost – maybe lost earlier, but I tried to follow the instructions in the Help up to this point. At any rate…
Where do I see the effects of the clipping? It’s not showing in PS (7.0 btw).
I "Jump To" ImageReady…still doesn’t show. I Save As an EPS file and look at that in ImageReady…still doesn’t show. I see a note in the help that says that it might not show if the EPS has a TIFF preview so I do the Save As EPS and uncheck the TIFF preview option…still no clipping.
I’ve obviously missed something …
Thanks in advance.
