4. Click and drag on the image to mark the areas you want to
discard/keep. As you do so, Digital Scrapbook Artist locates similar
adjoining areas and includes them in your selection.
5. Repeat the click and drag process until your selection area is complete.
6. As you paint your image, you can view your progress using the buttons
on the left toolbar.
Show original: The default view mode. The image is shown
in its original form.
Show tinted: Areas marked to be kept are shown with a
green tint; areas to be discarded are shown with a red tint.
Show transparent: Areas marked for discarding are not
shown. By default, these areas are replaced with a checkerboard
background indicating transparency.
Choosing an output type
On the Output Settings tab, the Output Type drop-down list provides two
output format options, Alpha-edged bitmap, and Vector-cropped bitmap.
The format you choose depends on what you want to do with your resulting
image.
General recommendations
Choose alpha-edged bitmap if you want to blend your cutout image into
another image or background, or if your subject has poorly defined edges.
Choose vector-cropped bitmap if you want to place your cutout image onto a
plain or transparent background, or if your subject has more well-defined
edges. (For more details on these output formats see online Help.)
