Fix Flaw |
Flaws typically found in photos can be fixed from within the Photo Workshop dialog. You can eliminate or reduce dust and scratches, and shiny face, red eye and pet eye caused by flash photography.
To fix flaws:
1. Click the image you want to edit.
2. Click the Photo Workshop button on the Effects palette and choose Fix Flaw from the submenu, or choose Photo Workshop from the Effects menu then choose Fix Flaw from the submenu. The Photo Workshop dialog appears with the Fix Flaw pane active. A preview of your image is located in the preview area in the Photo Workshop dialog.
3. Click the Red Eye, Pet Eye, Dust and Scratches, or Shiny Face button and select the brush-tool that most closely matches the size of the flaw in your photograph on the pop-up palette.
5. You can zoom in to fine tune the placement of the brush-tool by clicking the Zoom In button (the magnifying glass with the plus sign) or by using the Command + keyboard shortcut.
6. You can zoom out by clicking the Zoom Out button (the magnifying glass with the minus sign) or by using the Command - keyboard shortcut.
7. Click the tool in the center of the flaw in the photograph.
8. If the flaw is not satisfactorily removed, use a different size tool and click the flaw again.
9. Click the Undo button if you do not like the results. You can undo up to ten last actions.
10. Click the OK button when you have finished fixing the flaw, or continue editing the image, click Cancel to leave the image unchanged.
NOTE: To restore an image after fixing flaws choose Undo Change Image from the Edit menu or click the Revert to Initial State button in the Photo Workshop dialog.
