Impict Shape Tool fails with white border

Unread post by Martin Wynne »

If a rounded rectangle or ellipse is selected in the Shape Tool,
and the border colour is set to white (e.g. for use on a dark or
coloured background), the shape tool fails to trim the image
to shape at the corners. :(

Martin,

This is happening because the fill function can't find an edge. You can solve the problem quite easily and invisibly by setting the border color to "almost white" -- e.g. R255, G255 B254. 8)
