Adobe Photoshop Tutorial

 
 

Adobe Photoshop Tools - Meausure Tool & Image Straightening

 

I have attempted to do this by recording my screen as I create the various frames. There is no sound as the software I used was only a basic version. Also,

The software seemed to conflict slightly with Photoshop so caused it to run slow. As a result there are some pregnant pauses while I am waiting for things to happen. Sorry about that but I think these videos are more explanatory than my typing.

The file sizes for the tutorials are quite large so if you have a slow connection you might prefer to download them to your hard drive first.

As with most things in Photoshop there is always more than one way of doing things. To straighten images up, weather it is to level a horizon or make a building vertical I find the simplest way is to use the measure tool which is located behind the eye dropper tool on the Tools Pallet on the left of your screen. This toll works the same both in vertical and horizontal planes and I have included a video showing both.

 

 
  Horizontal Straightening (Horizons) 16 MB  
Vertical Straightening (Structures etc) 13 MB
