fantastic, thanks for this!
great work!
I cannot “Select, Modify, Contract”, i have clicked on the layer, but i dont think that the rectangle is selected.
Dont worry, i figured it out, i had to right click as soon as i had made the rounded rectangle and click on “make selection”, then contract, then inverse, then delete
Great tutorial! Thanks
