Use the initial top layer as the mask on the new top layer. (This assumes that the mask may be colored, with its R, G, B channels masking the channels of the image independently. Many image manipulation programs do not allow such masks; for them this equivalence holds only for grayscale top layers.)
The lasso (or "free form selection") is an editing tool available, with minor variations, in most digital image editing software [1] and some specific strategy games.It is often accessed from the standard main menu (in Photoshop, [2] Paint Tool SAI, [3] and GIMP, [4] as common examples), by clicking the icon of a dotted line shaped like a rope lasso, from which the common name arises.
Layers can be partially obscured allowing portions of images within a layer to be hidden or shown in a translucent manner within another image. Layers can also be used to combine two or more images into a single digital image. For the purpose of editing, working with layers allows for applying changes to just one specific layer.
Using an image layer mask, all but the parts to be merged is hidden from the layer, giving the impression that these parts have been added to the background layer. Performing a merge in this manner preserves all of the pixel data on both layers to more easily enable future changes in the new merged image.
Visual masking involves surrounding a target image (here, the word "radio") with another image. Visual masking is a phenomenon of visual perception. It occurs when the visibility of one image, called a target, is reduced by the presence of another image, called a mask. [1] The target might be invisible or appear to have reduced contrast or ...
Unsharp masking applied to lower part of image. Unsharp masking (USM) is an image sharpening technique, first implemented in darkroom photography, but now commonly used in digital image processing software. Its name derives from the fact that the technique uses a blurred, or "unsharp", negative image to create a mask of the original image. The ...
A color spectrum image with an alpha channel that falls off to zero at its base, where it is blended with the background color.. In computer graphics, alpha compositing or alpha blending is the process of combining one image with a background to create the appearance of partial or full transparency. [1]
One would mask everything above the store's roof, and the other would mask everything below it. By using these masks/mattes when copying these images onto the third, the images can be combined without creating ghostly double-exposures. In film, this is an example of a static matte, where the shape of the mask does not change from frame to frame ...
