Would you mind describing how this tool works? Some screenshots would be brilliant. I am guessing that it's an erase tool with some kind of edge detection that doesn't delete things not in the same region as the starting seed point - is that accurate? > The other approaches I take are: > 1. decomposing the image and a making mask from the layer with the best separation > 2. using the path tool to break out a region and (once again) make a mask > > Any techniques I'm missing? I tend to use the magic scissors to make a first attempt at it, create a layer mask from that and retouch the mask to get it right.
