I do a lot of "cutouts" with DIP ver 7 and recently upgraded to new 2006 ver 11, Digital Image Suite.

In ver 7, it seems the cutout functions were much better, at least I understood them more..... :)

For instance, with ver 7, once you went completely around the subject you are cutting out, you have the chance to push or pull the cutout line to exactly where you may wish it to be before proceeding to the next step.

With new 2006 version, I do not seem to have this ability to nudge the line a bit as I can with version 7.

Am I overlooking a tool that allows for these slight but sometimes necessary adjustments....?

Thanks,

Once you have drawn your cutout/shape/area
Click on your selection toolbar(shows marquee tool box)
Click on adjust marquee(this will put handles on your cutout)
adjust area by dragging from corners OR use your arrow keys on keyboard to nudge a little

Handy Hint: To adjust the edge of your cutout (soften cutout lines - really handy in cutting out people) click on feather in your marquee tool box) 1 to 3
is an ideal amount for people

Hope this helps
