EasyPeg Documentation

Select

EasyPeg knows two modes. Selection Mode and Paint Mode. In Selection Mode, EasyPeg allows you to select an area of the image. If nothing is selected, the complete image is considered to be selected. Attention: accidentally selecting a very small area can be the reason when nothing seems to be selected, but the effects don't seem to work.

Rectangle

Rectangular selection is the default and let's you select a rectangular area.

Circle

Circular selection let's you select a circular area.

Polygon

Polygon selection let's you select a polygon area. Press the left button to add a new corner to the Polygon. If you press you left mouse button over an existing corner of the polygon, this corner can be moved.

Freehand

Freehand selection let's you select an area while keeping the left mouse button pressed. If you want to edit this area, you can switch to Polygon selection mode. There is an Option that EasyPeg will automatically switch to Polygon Selection after selecting an area with Freehand selection.

by Color (in the current selection)

uses the old selection, but only selects pixels with colors that are close enough to the specified color. Width is the maximum distance in color for a pixel to be selected. E.g. Width=2 R=1,G=1,B=1, a pixel with R=2,G=1,B=0 is selected as (2-1)*(2-1)+0+(0-1)*(0-1) = 2 <=2, but a pixel with R=3, G=2, B=0 would be out of the color range. It's the same way as the Transparent Color Interval works.
The color interval is visualized on the right. All colors shown are within the interval.
