Fluid Mask 2.0 - Features

Tutorials Support Technical Information FAQ Fluid Mask 2.0 New Features Using our latest algorithms in Fluid Mask 2.0, for the first time in digital imaging you can see clean object edges within an image. Suddenly masking's become a whole lot easier - it's now possible using Fluid Mask 2.0 to select, group and mask objects in images to make great cut-outs. Edge Overlay Use the Edge Overlay view to see all the object edges in the Workspace before you begin cutting - if you can see the edge to be cut as an object - you can cut it... by selecting and grouping objects using the Local mask brushes you create the area to be cut. Workspace without Edge Overlay Workspace with Edge Overlay Edge Detection Option panel The position and number of objects/edges in the Workspace may be adjusted using the Edge Detection Options panel. This replaces the Image Information Layer in the first version. The panel is easy to pick up and intuitive to use - watch adjustments instantly be reflected in the Edge Overlay view. Local and Global Brush Strength Slider We've added brush strength sliders to the Local and Global brushes. A weak Global brush will filter for areas of similar color and texture whereas a strong one will filter for color only. For example, a weak selection could be used to select areas of grass only but not select other similar greens in the image. The Local brush strength slider will group objects of similar color when set to strong. This is very useful for masking complex areas with small objects such as hair. Easy-to-use tools set...
