![]() ![]() If you want to delete the background, go to Select > Inverse and hit the Delete key. ![]() Step 4: Remove the Background in Photoshop In the Paths window, hit the “Load path as selection” icon. Once you reach the first anchor point, click on it. Continue the process until you’ve made a path around the subject. It takes some practice to get the hang of it but after a while, you’ll go a lot faster. Option-click will reset the anchor point so you can create a straight line again. ![]() If you don’t, the next one will arc automatically depending on the previous line. This way you can go smoothly around the round edges and curves.Īlways make sure to Option-click (Alt-click for Windows) on the last anchor point after a curved line. If you need a curved line, click and drag to make the line arc. Make sure you set it on “Path” in the top menu.Ĭlick anywhere on the edges of your subject to create your first anchor point. Select the Pen Tool from the tool bar on the left. It’s ideal to create a selection of an object with hard, straight, or curved lines. The Pen Tool works best with simple objects. Here are a few examples of how to remove a background in Photoshop. Only by practicing you’ll find out which tool will be best for the job because no photo is the same.Īlso, everybody has their own preferences and there is no right or wrong when the result is good. But this has implications for your other topic, about the line width for the Pencil tool.It all depends on the photo you’re working with. Well, hopefully one of those options will work for you, regarding the Eraser tool. If it has any pressure sensitivity feature, Inkscape's Calligraphy tool could be used. I don't know much about tablet PCs, but I think of them as similar to graphics tablets. The line would be automatcally drawn as a closed path.and erasable. ![]() Have you tried using the Calligraphy tool? That would be similar to what you're already doing, except you wouldn't have to do Object to Path. I think you said in another topic that you're using a tablet pc? So that probably means that you're using the Pencil in ellipse mode on purpose, to have the line width varied? So I can see how it would be a deal breaker. Then you end up with 2 paths, that are still in ellipse mode, and editable as such. So if you need to erase a section of such a line, you could just place a couple of nodes at the place where you want to break the line, and then break the path between the nodes. Then click "Delete segments between 2 non-endpoint nodes" button. Then click between 2 nodes to select them. If that's going to be a problem, you could actually node edit the pattern path. But note that once you do that, you can't go back to the ellipse mode, in case you want to edit the line later. Then you should be able to use the Eraser tool effectively. I'm not sure if that's a bug or not, but I do get the same behavior.Īfter you draw the line in the ellipse mode, leave it selected and do Path menu > Object to Path. When you use the Eraser tool, it automatically converts the ellipse shaped pattern to a path, and apparently also tries to apply something of what the Eraser tool is supposed to do. So you're not using the Eraser tool on a simple path, you're using it on a pattern. Technically, it applies Pattern Along Path automatically, using an ellipse for the pattern. The reason it's doing that, is because you used the Pencil with the Ellipse shape mode. ![]()
