00:23 | Welcome to Meet The GIMP. |
00:25 | My name is Rolf Steinort and I am recording this in Bremen, Northern Germany. |
00:31 | Today, we will talk about the Fuzzy Select Tool. |
00:36 | It is closely related to the Select by Colour tool. |
00:40 | But the Fuzzy Select Tool selects only one contiguous region and the colour select tool selects all regions with similar colours. |
00:54 | There are some similar options like Replace, Add, Subtract and Intersect with the current selection and now I select Replace. |
01:08 | Here you can see the same option, Antialiasing. |
01:13 | If we select Antialiasing, border of the selection is not sharp and you get smooth corners. |
01:23 | And if it is not selected then you have a really sharp border between selected and unselected. |
01:33 | The further options are Feather edges and Select transparent areas. |
01:41 | Select transparent areas is useful while using mask sensor on perhaps. |
01:50 | Sample merged is the same as with the other and it selects all the visible layers. |
01:58 | If it is not selected then it works on current layer. |
02:04 | If you want to select something from the total output of image then select this option. |
02:11 | Here is Threshold which defines how much difference between the colours is allowed to be in the selection or when something is out of selection. |
02:24 | It helps in selecting the pixels that have one definite colour. |
02:30 | The next important selection is, which mode do you want to have in the selection. |
02:37 | The Composite mode is the gray value of added Red, Green and Blue channels. |
02:44 | You can select the Red, the Green, the Blue channel or the Hue, Saturation or the Value channel as the base for your selection. |
02:56 | Now let's try Fuzzy Select Tool. |
03:01 | I just click into the image and the Threshold is zero, so let's see what happens. |
03:08 | I make a selection which is one pixel in size. |
03:13 | Now I increase the amount of Threshold to say 30 and click into the image and click on Toggle Quick Mask here. |
03:28 | Now you can see the area which is selected. |
03:37 | I de-select the Quick Mask toggle, press tab to get the toolbox and press Shift+Ctrl+A to unselect everything. |
03:49 | I can do this in a different way and for that, I decrease the Threshold to zero and click into the image and now, I am drawing the mouse down and right. |
04:03 | When I increase the threshold, you can see that I am going into this blue area but I am still on the wall. |
04:13 | I think, this tool is more useful for graphic designers and not for photographers. |
04:22 | You can change the Threshold by just pulling the mouse. |
04:26 | This works the same in colour selection tool. |
04:32 | I change Select by from Composite to Hue and click at the same point and draw to the bottom. |
04:43 | You can see that I have a way better selection of blue, green part of the wall, than I had before. |
04:54 | So, choosing the right method of colour definition gives good result with this tool. |
05:05 | I click into the quick mask and here you see it’s nearly perfect; only some parts to repair and I would do that with painting in the quick mask and not with these selection tools. |
05:25 | If you are confused about selecting the mode then you can see your image in different channels in the Channels mode. |
05:41 | Select the Blue channel and you see that everything has nearly the same blue value. |
05:50 | In the Green channel, there are some differences. |
05:55 | In the Red channel, it’s nearly the same here. |
05:59 | So, I would select the Green channel for selecting or in this case Hue channel. |
06:10 | Selecting colour is the next tool here and it has the same function and same options here. |
06:19 | It has only one difference. |
06:22 | If you click here, you will select all fields with this colour and not one contiguous area. |
06:32 | The colour selection tool selects all the areas with the similar colour. |
06:41 | The name of the next tool is Intelligent scissors or Scissors selection tool . |
06:48 | This algorithm looks for edges and tries to follow them with the selection. |
06:56 | And I want to select here, these letter boxes. |
07:10 | So, I activate the selection tool and I pull a point here and I get a plus sign near the cursor and I simply select the points. |
07:42 | The algorithm is supposed to follow the borders and you can see here, it didn’t take the other way, it took the inside way. |
07:56 | I zoom into the image and now I can draw this point up to here and there was a mistake with selecting this point. |
08:13 | So, I pull these points up and you can see the algorithm follows the border, if you give enough information where to follow. |
08:30 | It looks pretty good but I usually don’t use this because there are better ways to do this. |
08:44 | I think, I would use the colour selection tool because it always takes the wrong way round. |
08:56 | So, I finished with the selection. |
09:10 | I just click on the first point here and the cursor changes to plus. |
09:17 | Now, put the next point and I have these two rings making a loop out of it. |
09:25 | I can still move the point around here and make the selection better. |
09:33 | So, when I now click into the selection second time, the selection is selected. |
09:42 | And, to look at the quality, I activate the Quick Mask and zoom into it. |
09:57 | Now, I look around in the selection. |
10:04 | Here is my fault, I should have clicked here. |
10:10 | So, this is the fairly intelligent scissors. |
10:17 | The next and the last tool I want to cover today is the Foreground Selection Tool. |
10:24 | It was quite sensation when the algorithm came out sometime ago and it was not so sensational in using in the GIMP. |
10:37 | But, let's give it a try. |
10:41 | Here are the same modes and antialiasing isn’t activatable. |
10:48 | And here, I want to select one single area and I want to select the statue. |
10:57 | So, first I zoom into the image to get a better control. |
11:06 | Now, I select the selection tool and I can select contiguous region or different region but I select the Contiguous region. |
11:21 | First I make a rough selection here, with the automatic laser tool. And now you can see that the area which is not selected, is in blue colour. |
11:44 | I have selected a brush here and I can control the diameter of the brush with this slider and I paint through this stuff I want to have selected. |
11:59 | I have to see that I don’t select stuff which I don’t want to have in the image. |
12:17 | When I release the mouse button, the algorithm starts to work and some areas here have to be selected. |
12:27 | Every time the selection gets updated and area that is similar to the stuff I just painted over, gets selected. |
12:42 | Now, I click on Mark Background and start painting the background that I don’t want to have in the image. |
12:54 | This tool works better when there is more difference between the selected part and the stuff which is not selected and here the difference is not big enough. |
13:12 | Just press Enter to accept the selection. |
13:17 | I think, you have got an idea of how this tool works. |
13:27 | The Paths tool belongs also to this part but I will cover that sometimes else. |
13:36 | In the Select menu, there are some other stuff you can do with selections and I will cover that also sometime else. |
13:48 | So, this was it for this tutorial. |
13:52 | Let me hear some comments and I promise you for the next show with really new things which are viewer generated content. |
14:05 | You will find a link to this file in the show notes at meetthegimp.org and if you want to leave a comment then please do that. |
14:19 | This is Hemant Waidande, dubbing for the Spoken Tutorial Project. |
