Looks like you can only fade an object/image edge as @Abhi.G @ ADBE recommended IF said object is a picture - not in the case of it being a shape, like an arrow (as I wanted to attempt within the design below).

Bit ridiculous that this is not available in Adobe... It took me at least 10 min. to come to this conclusion for a simple action.

Hi @Remymill

Sorry for your frustration with this. I agree this would be a useful feature to have. I noticed someone had created a feature request for it here: https://adobe.ly/4g5TX7t Please add your vote and comments to let our developers know we should add it.

Thanks,
Dave

The fact that this very simple option is nowhere to be found is baffling. It shouldn't be difficult to have this option as part of the crop tool or the sliding crop tool in express.

Hi @hegercreative 

 

You could try the Erase tool with the Circle Brush, using low hardness and opacity values
