Removing Backgrounds in PhotoScape X (Cut Out Tab)

  1. Open PhotoScape X and select the Cut Out tab at the top of the window.
  2. Drop your photo onto the canvas. You will see three primary extraction tools on the right:
    • Magic Eraser: Click any solid or gradient background area to erase contiguous pixels of similar color. Adjust the Tolerance slider (15–35 works best for studio backdrops).
    • Lasso Tool: Trace roughly around an irregular object and invert selection to delete the outer perimeter.
    • Brush Tool: Manually refine hair edges or complex shadows with adjustable brush size and hardness (feathering).
  3. Check the Invert box at any time to restore accidentally erased foreground details.
  4. Click Save and choose PNG format to preserve the alpha transparency channel (JPEG does not support transparent backgrounds).
