#PAINTCODE MASKING HOW TO#
Learning how to use masks will open up a new world of creative options for your PHOTO-PAINT projects.Find Triumph paint by clicking the year or model. Then come three clip masks, each using a different part of the fox, and blended in different ways with the pine tree image. The Fox Bottom Half is another clipped object, blended with the background image of pine trees. The Fox object is a copy of the fox itself, which was created with the Smart Selection Mask tool. The two Brighten objects lighten the background. To start, we have used the Visibility icon in the Objects docker to hide all objects except for the background photo of a snow fox.
This allows the photo below, with the clear sky, to show through.įinally, our last example shows a beautiful way of using masks to create a composite image. Or, with the inverted mask of the sky still active, press Delete to remove all pixels inside the mask. This places the sky inside the mask, to which you can add a different effect such as Noise. Or you can invert the mask (go to Mask > Invert Mask). The mask includes only the tower, so if you apply an effect, such as Effects > Color Transform > Psychedelic, the effect is applied only within the mask. This is because the new Smart Selection Mask tool includes an edge-detection algorithm, as well as machine learning models to identify and include colors in a selection. When you release the mouse, the mask expands to include the entire tower but none of the background. In Normal mode, drag the mouse within the tower. We’ll use Mask > Remove Mask to start over, this time using the new Smart Selection Mask tool. This method works well to mask the tower, but in PHOTO-PAINT 2020 we have a faster and easier way to get the same result. Then switch to Additive mode and click the bits along the tower that had been excluded before. You can lower the Tolerance and switch to Subtractive mode, then click in the background to exclude those pixels from the mask. This leaves some areas that need to be removed from the mask, as well as added. You can try the Magic Wand Mask tool in Normal mode, with a medium Tolerance of around 50, and drag the mouse to include the pixels you want in the mask. There are a few ways to mask just the tower. Our second example is a photo of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, placed above a photo of a clear sky. Use Ctrl + C to copy it, Ctrl + V to paste, then use the Pick tool to resize and move as needed.
Now the doughnut can be used as an object in another document. Press Ctrl + X to cut out this part of the photo. We will use the Lasso Mask tool, carefully tracing around the hole’s edges, and double-clicking when finished. If we press Ctrl + X, everything inside the mask is cut and only the doughnut remains.Īnother mask is needed along the doughnut hole, which isn’t perfectly round. When you choose Mask > Mask Overlay, the red overlay marks what you can’t access while the mask is active.Ĭhoose Mask > Invert Mask to reverse what’s inside the mask, and now it’s the doughnut that can’t be edited.
We’ll use the Position and Size control to resize and reposition as needed to fit the mask to the doughnut.īy default, what’s inside the mask is what you can now keep or edit. The controls in the property bar for this tool include Position and Size, Rotate, Scale, and more. The mask isn’t perfectly located, so we will use the Mask Transform tool to make adjustments. The moving dashed border is the mask marquee. On the left toolbar, open the Mask tool group flyout and choose the Ellipse Mask tool.ĭrag to place the mask shape approximately along the outline of one of the doughnuts. There are several mask-creating options, including the Smart Selection Mask tool which was introduced in PHOTO-PAINT 2020.Ĭlick on any of the images below to view full-size.įor our first example, we’ll start with a photo of some doughnuts. Masks enable you to isolate areas for editing, while protecting the remaining areas from any changes. Masks in PHOTO-PAINT work similarly to placing a stencil over a piece of paper.
