Although the user interface of AKVIS SmartMask is extremely intuitive, it will still probably take most users some time to get used to the application’s tools. However, the time spent learning how to get the most out of the program is very well spent, especially if you’ve been looking for an easier way to extract objects from one digital photograph to use in other editing projects.
There are three different modes that you can enter when attempting to extract an object or remove a background. One very nice feature is that you can pass seamlessly from one mode to another and incorporate tools from each one when editing the image. While it will take practice to perfect this process, all tools are clearly labeled and you can find out additional information about their usage in a help section located in the lower right-hand corner of the application.
