Zoom and pan while selecting an object

Use Zoom and pan in the documented Repaint editor to control a photo cleanup.

Before you start

A source photograph and a clear idea of what you want to remove.

1. Prepare the photograph

Open the Repaint application and load the image. Keep the original and identify any details that must remain unchanged.

2. Use Zoom and pan

Zoom until the selection boundary is easy to see, then pan to reach the next part of the object. Return to a full-image view before deciding whether the cleanup works.

3. Process and inspect

Apply the cleanup where relevant, inspect it at full-image and close-up views, then export a new copy.

Check the result

Zoom changes your inspection view. It does not add missing detail to the source image.

What to know

Open your project in Repaint to apply these steps to your own image. Refine the selection, compare the changed region with the source and review the export. The homepage comparison uses a prepared sample.
