Bonjour votre tutoriel et génial!
Merci beaucoup !! Bonne journée

Good one, Eric! As I was watching, I thought of one use of Paste Outside; perhaps for applying a texture to a building by selecting only the windows, which would be much quicker than making the selection around them.
I had a similar thought and tried it with a building and a double decker bus. In both counts I found it easier to select the non windows, so I’m thinking I’m missing a quick selection technique?
Hi Eric,
A good, clear, run-through of Past Special commands, thank you. They save a step or two over just creating masks manually.
One use for “past outside”. Create a Text layer, ctl-click text to select, Make your copy of an another image (let’s say it’s a pattern) and “paste outside”. This creates a new layer with the pattern but with the text mask on the pattern layer.
No big deal but saves a step or two.
Hmm, probably not the QST. I was thinking Polygonal Lasso, or if the image is square-on, the Rectangular Marquee.
Merci beaucoup!
Nicely done and nicely paced!
