How it works is very simple, you simply ‘join-the-dots’. I tend to use this method alot, as it gives me the most precision. If you don’t see it, simply hold the Lasso Tool down to show more selections, and choose Polygonal Tool. As you can see, my outline isn’t very precise haha. However if you use a tablet, feel free to ‘draw’ around your object. I don’t really recommend this method if you’re using a mouse, as it can be rather unsteady and you will have a hard time outlining your object. How it works, is simply you draw the selection around whatever you want to outline. If not when you try to duplicate the layer, it will duplicate the outline, but of another layer that you have selected previously.įirst, there’s Lasso Tool. ![]() IMPORTANT: Before outlining, make sure you have selected the correct layer that you’re outlining on. After your outline is completed, simply press Ctrl+J (Cmd+J) to do so. NOTE: After you have selected your object using whatever means, you may duplicate the outline and turn it into a layer, so that you can further edit it, or save it. There’s a number of ways to outline your object, and depending on your photo/image, there are obviously preferred methods for each. We can then do whatever we want with our outlined object, from changing its color, to transforming it, etc. So what do we do? We simply have to outline out the object that we want, and save it as another image file so the computer recognises it. The trouble is that although we can see and differentiate the object that we want, the computer cannot. You will find that in many situations, you may want to change the color of a certain object in a photograph, or you want to crop out a single object from a poster. ![]() This tutorial is very important, and almost essential in most Photoshop situations.
