174 Working with Pictures
The white initial background is discarded, leaving interim checkerboard
transparency, from which another image can be used as a more attractive
background. A red tint on the second image's background is used to indicate
areas to be discarded.
To launch Image Cutout Studio:
1. Select an image to be cut out.
2. Select
from the displayed Picture context toolbar.
Image Cutout Studio is launched.
Your original image, if linked, is unaffected in Image Cutout Studio.
However, embedded images, when cut out, are altered permanently
in the project.
Choose an output
It's essential that you choose an output type prior to selecting areas for
keeping/discarding. Either an alpha-edged or vector-cropped bitmap can be
chosen as your output type prior to selection. The choice you make really
depends on the image, in particular how well defined image edges are. Let's look
at the output types and explain the difference between each.
