1. Re: "No pixels are more than 50% selected"
What is the resolution of the image you are working on?

3. Re: "No pixels are more than 50% selected"
that should do. Perhaps you can select by different means. like using the lasso tool or select color.

Thanks Jan for your suggestion.The result is the same, however, so now I will just give up this picture.

I presume the surface of the desired area is to small. although at the current resolution it should not be a problem. I find it hard to tackle the problem without an image to see what is the situation. I wish you good luck with the new image.

Consider placing a suitable layer below and using a mask in the image layer to get you out of this jam until you can locate the source of the problem

Hi Norm, good suggestion! But I fear that I cannot locate the source of the problem with my fairly limited PS-skills after all, it sounds like something you would need to be an expert of. But thanks for the suggestion, I will keep it in mind!

It would really help if you posted a screen shot. It's likely some silly little issue that's doing it.

Another thing would be to press "Q" to enter Quick Mask mode, so you could get an overall look at what the selection is.

Read the message carefully. It's telling you that the selection is not more than 50% selected. The selection is only partial, meaning, you may have selected it at a reduced opacity so that if you delete, you aren't deleting the pixels 100%, but only partially. How are you making your selection? From an alpha channel that has grey values (partial selection)? From a layer that has semi-transparent pixels (which also results in a selection that will not give you a 100% change to the subsequent pixel edits)?

Hi RKelly, I agree, although I think that it would have to be a screen-movie :-) There is as far as I can tell not much to see from a single screenshot (other than the message itself), but please correct me if you can think of a possible helpful screenshot.

12. Re: "No pixels are more than 50% selected"
Hi Peter, good question! I think that I make the selection in the standard way: I mark the two intersecting areas (both in color) with the magic wand, which works fine, but then, when I try to substract one of the selections (again with the magic wand, but with changed settings) or do anything else with it, it gives me the message. I can delete both selections, however. But there may be something I'm missing, taking your question into consideration - like some setting, I have accidently changed. But I have checked your suggestions, and they are not the problem.

Hi Semaphoric, and thanks for your suggestion! But I'm afraid, I don't have the skills to understand the quick mask; at least, when I just used it, it all turns red (as it should), and the two selections are marked with orange. So to me, that seems to work just fine and gives me no indication that something is wrong. But is there anything else, I can deduce from the quick mask?
