Putting a border on a cropped overlay.. Request for...

[Nationalsolo]

Hi

 

Can this be done? Add an overlay image and then crop it to reveal the background clip. (Not SCALE it as this would reduce it in image content size) So far so good, the cropped image, still the same size appears in the centre of the background clip.

 

Now try to put a border around the cropped image. It seems you can't as the cropped image is to all intents and purposes still full size. It just has a transparent "border". Using the BORDER effect just makes a border around the full size image before it was cropped.

 

Obviously I can create a border using a slighly larger cropped overlay of a coloured blank and place this behind my centre image but that is just a workaround. (Like this...)

 

 

Can NCH possibly make the Border effect so it can be used directly on cropped images instead of just the borders of the whole image?

What about adding a Border option for the crop effect?

Hi Sam

 

Yes that's it....I think that is what I was saying. :-))

 

PS. This post seems to have arrived 3 times so I have edited the other two.
