Working within a region of an image

Operations can be applied to a region of an image instead of the whole image. Region (also called selection) is an area of image that can be used as target for most operations (with the exception of resizing, rotating and shearing).

Toolbox contains the buttons to work with regions. You can also use the Toolbox menu.

Selects a rectangular region. Click on the image and drag. You will see a marquee rectangle that defines the region.

Selects a freeform region. Click on the image and drag while holding the mouse button. You will see your region contour enclosed into a rectangular marquee. This marquee is used for resizing.

To change the position of region marquee, place the cursor inside the marquee and drag. To change the size, place the cursor onto one of the rectangular marquee handles and drag.

You can cut, copy, and paste regions using the Edit menu.

Working with annotations

In the Edit mode, you can add so-called annotations to the image using the tools in the toolbox or in the Toolbox menu. Annotations are used for adding comments and emphasizing parts of an image.
