    Lightbulb Create mask WITH anchor points from color selection

    Hello everyone,

    We have this big problem at our company. Essentially we need to select a certain color and then make a mask of that color complete with anchor points. If we can succeed in this it can drastically reduce time spent on projects. Any help you all can offer is very much appreciated! Thanks.

    For example in Photoshop it's easy, I just select a color range and then click the mask button.

    Have a look at HELP > MOVIES ... Select "The Photo Tool" and "Color Select & Enhance".

    Does that help? Although I'm not sure what you mean by ANCHOR POINTS.

    Welcome to TalkGraphics Warren

    Xara products are vector drawing programs that can also do some photo editing. But there is a big difference between a vector program and a photo editing program such as Photoshop.

    Both programs can do similar things but they approach these tasks from different directions.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
