This was done with the paint bucket, and simply gives horrid results. This mask obviously is doing a horrible job of actually cutting out this butterfly. Let’s take a quick look at the tool for editing masks, and see how we can improve the selection and keep those fuzzy edges. Some objects, like this butterfly, have soft edges, and are notoriously hard to cut out. One of the flagship features of Photoshop CS5 is the tools for refining masks with “Smart Radiuses,” to help mask objects accurately and quickly. Removing Fuzzy Objects From The Background Simply using the right settings will help you isolate your objects better, if not perfectly. Down in the bottom left corner of your editing workspace, you’ll see a zoom level setting with a bunch of preconfigured zoom levels.The difference is pretty obvious the left image uses a Tolerance of 5 and no anti-aliasing, while the right uses a tolerance of 40 with anti-aliasing. Generally, I avoid these buttons since using shortcuts is so much faster.
Last but not least, you can always zoom in or out with the buttons in the user interface. They are listed in the Keyboard Shortcuts window above but don’t have any effect.
CUT OUT IMAGE IN GIMP ON MAC WINDOWS
In a confusing twist, there are a corresponding set of shortcuts – Shift + 2, Shift + 3, and so on – that should zoom out to 50%, 25%, and smaller, but they don’t work for me on Windows or macOS. GIMP has a few quick pre-programmed zoom levels that can easily be reached using the numbers 1-5 on your keyboard or number pad: Using a level like 33% or 182% can cause your pixels to look strange as the screen decides which pixels to keep and which to discard while displaying your image. Two great zoom presets include the ` button (also the ~, beside the number 1, above Tab) which allows you to switch rapidly between your last two zoom levels, and Shift + Ctrl + J which zooms your image to fit your current image workspace.īecause pixels are square, it usually works best to stick to an even zoom level like 25%, 50%, or 200%. I felt silly the first time I realized why it wasn’t working as expected for me! Zoom Presets If you don’t have a keypad, you can use the + and – keys next to your numbers row, but you’ll have to actually hold Shift while you zoom in or GIMP will read it as an = instead of a + and just sit there like a lump.
Zoom in using the + key on your keypad, and zoom out using the – key right beside it. If you don’t want to use your mouse for zooming at all (or if your mouse wheel is broken or nonexistent), there are a lot of keyboard-only shortcuts for zooming.
You can also click your mouse wheel and drag to get accurate positioning while zoomed. If you want to get extra fancy, you can hold down Alt instead of Ctrl to scroll up and down with the mouse wheel or hold down Shift to scroll left to right through your image with the mouse wheel.
Spinning up zooms in, and spinning down zooms out! To zoom in or zoom out in GIMP, hold down the Ctrl key and spin your mouse wheel. The fastest shortcut is usually the one closest to your hand, so a keyboard and mouse combo shortcut is perfect for GIMP image editing. Zoom In and Out with Your Keyboard and Mouse It seems like there are some duplicate entries, but it’s not immediately clear what the ‘accel’ tag means on these shortcut names.
