Heal Suggestions

Post by torsinadoc »

I did a quick startools processing on Mel15 (ha). I tried to remove the stars and used several different settings. How can I remove the donuts around were the stars were? I had to leave a few larger stars?

Hi,

The 'donuts' are the result of not selecting enough pixels - grow the mask before healing by using the Grow button, or grow individual blobs by using the 'Grow Blob' brush mode.

Hope this helps!
