Steps
1Point at the object
On the Auto Detect tab, frame the object with Box, circle it with Lasso, or click it with Click. PhotoDirector works out its edges.
2Or brush over the object yourself
For an awkward shape, switch to Manual and paint over the area. Brush settings sizes the brush, and Eraser takes back a mistake.
3Remove and compare
What you marked turns red. Click Remove, then use the tray under the panel to click between the original and the result.
4Export the photo
When the result looks right, click Export to save the photo.
We tested these steps in PhotoDirector 365 version 18.0.8 on Windows.
