This may be something like a waving flag or freeway in the background. With the Brush tool
selected, you can "paint" the mask, removing the offending sections of the image. With the
Rectangle tool selected, you can mask a rectangular area of any size by clicking at one corner
then dragging the mouse to the opposite corner. Hold down the Control key while drawing to
restore portions of the original image.
Conversely, if there is one area that should always cause a trigger regardless of overall
sensitivity, you may define this as a Hot Spot. When you draw with the Hot spot rectangle
tool, the area will be highlighted in red. Currently only one hot spot rectangle is supported.
Use the Clear button to fully restore the original image.
Use the Invert button change all masked areas into unmasked areas and vice-versa. This might
come in handy if you first want to specify the area of interest, then create a mask by inverting
your drawing.
Click Ok to save your changes.
