How to use the Popfore-cutout software?

1. Start Popfore:popfore is pure green software, no need to install can be used. After the decompression, double-click Popfore.exe to start the Popfore main program, and you will see the interface shown in the following figure. An instant Help prompt appears in the lower-right corner.

2. Open the input image: After you open the image, you will see an interface shown below, where you need to pay attention to the Brush toolbar and view control buttons.

Brush toolbar, right-click on the view to move the Brush toolbar to the location of the mouse;

View control buttons, each letter corresponds to the view of a display mode (s= source, A=alpha, b= background, f= foreground, c= Composite);

3. Use the Alpha brush to add a seed pixel marker, which tells the algorithm which areas are foreground and which areas are backgrounds. As the following illustration shows, the yellow brush indicates that the covered pixel is the foreground, and the blue brush represents the background of the pixel being overwritten.

The right-hand side of the interface displays two secondary views, which can be viewed from both views as you add the seed pixel markers.

Pressing the SHIFT key allows the status of the alpha brush to toggle between foreground and background.

4. Toggle the display mode of the main view to the Alpha graph and continue adding the tag. The advantage of interacting on an alpha diagram is that you can add tags to the area that contains the most errors, according to the current result. This will be more intuitive and efficient than interacting with the source diagram.

5. Continue to add the tag until you get a basic, correct alpha image. Press the V button to show/hide the brush marks, and to better observe the result of the pull, use the Pick background color tool to change the back color of the composite diagram.

6. Click the mode switch button to enter the fine repair mode, at this time the Save button will become available. For the simple background, the results obtained by the intelligent pull graph algorithm have been basically correct. If you are not very high quality requirements, you can save the pull-out results.

7. Save: Pull out the results can be saved into a transparent. png image, you can choose to save the foreground or save only the alpha graph, expand the Save menu to make a selection.

The PNG format uses lossless compression, so you don't have to worry about the loss of quality.

Save quickly, save the results by default path (foreground and alpha charts are saved to *_f.png and *_a.png in the same directory as the source image);

The background color of the composite diagram does not affect the save result, Popfore temporarily does not provide the function of the background replacement; When you finish, you can import the saved results into other image editing software and synthesize them with any new background.
