• Special Erase Options
Need to remove that blue sky and leave the clouds? Use the Flood
Eraser to fill the blue regions with transparency. Want to isolate a
shape from a flat color background? The Background Eraser samples
pixels under the brush, so only unwanted colors drop out.
• Quick-and-easy Cutouts
Image Cutout Studio makes light work of cutting out parts of your
active layer. Use brushes to discard uniform backgrounds (sky, walls,
backdrops) or keep subjects of interest (people or objects).
• User Interface Color Schemes
Choose from Silver, Blue, Aqua, Silver-Blue, or Classic for a different
PhotoPlus look.
Color
• Histogram Support
The Histogram tab dynamically responds to show the values for the
currently active selection within your document. See how curves and
level adjustments affect your image as they happen!
• Custom and preset color selection
The Color tab operates in RGB, CMYK, HSL, and Grayscale models
for selecting foreground and background colors when painting,
creating lines or filling shapes. Use the Swatches tab for themed
galleries of preset color swatches. Use a Web-browser safe category
when outputting to the web.
• Gradient Fills
Take your pick of radial, linear, conical, or square fills—perfect for
masking, to hide or reveal parts of your photo using smooth graduated
blends to transparency. One master dialog allows editing of five
gradient fill types combining both color and transparency. Choose
from a built-in gallery of presets, add your own categories and fills.
(Of course, there's standard flood fill as well.)
