outlines
Is there a way to draw a line with a different color outlining it? FDor example a 10 pixel wide blue line with a 1 pixel line on each side as an outline. Thanks Jeff |

Re: outlines
The simplest way to do this is to use Photoshop's ability to stroke pen paths with the current Brush. In this example, I started with a simple path. Then, while the path was still visible, I switched to a hard-edged brush, set the foreground colour to red, and pressed Enter to stroke the path with that brush. Then, with the pen path still visible, I reduced the size of the brush and changed the colour to blue, and pressed Enter again. This stroked the path with the smaller, blue brush. Is this the effect you wanted? ![]() |
