Problem with mask

[James Hurley]

In the past I have always used Freehand to deal with masking of images.

But I thought I would see if I couldn't roll one of my own in RR.

It worked after a fashion but is rough around the edges. In  
particular when masking to an ellipse, the results is flat on the  
right edge and the bottom edge. I do this by running over the image  
and masking all pixels that are not within the ellipse--using the  
"within" function. That should work.

But it doesn't quite. There must be something  about images I don't  
understand. I would appreciate any thoughts.

To see the effect, run this in the msg box:
