CS3 Photomerge
« on: August 03, 2007, 09:00:31 am »

I've noticed something interesting about images created with Photomerge. I'm wondering if I've just missed reading that this is expected behavior or something? Aside from this one wrinkle, Photomerge is so easy to use, its almost silly...

     The thing I've noticed, though, is that after the Auto Blend is done, I have to flatten the image before cropping away the edges that are left from merging the pictures. Otherwise, the seams between the images become visible after cropping. If I flatten and then crop, everything is as its supposed to be. I don't know if Photoshop is somehow moving layers during the crop, or things are getting distorted somehow, or??

     Obviously, this isn't a huge deal - Auto Blend has done a good job, so far, so flattening at that point is not painful. Just curious if I missed something and this is expected behavior, or what.... ????

If it's what I'm seeing, I suspect it's only when you're zoomed out - try zooming in to actual pixels.

I've experienced the white seams too. Most of the time, using a 100% view shows that the issue is not real but on some occasions I had vertical white one-pixel wide lines that could easily be fixed by painting in the layer masks.

     I think I looked at it at 100%, but I'll double check when I do the next one...
