“Trace Outer Edge” traces just the outer edge.Selecting “Trace” will cut all of the edges inside and outside of the image.There are three ways you can apply the Trace tool: Applying The Trace Tool To Your Highlighted Image You can see that as I increase the threshold, the more details the trace tool finds in the shadows of the selected area. The higher the slider, the more light areas are included. The lower the slider, the more dark areas are included. How you adjust the threshold slider depends on how broadly you want to apply the trace tool to your image. What Is The Purpose Of The Threshold Slider? The High Pass Filter is useful when tracing line art-like this awesome monster drawing by my son.
If you move it higher, it finds more detail and usually results in a thicker frame. If you move the Value slider lower, the frame becomes thinner, less detailed. The High Pass Filter finds the details of the edges of the image and works from the outside in, making a frame around the pieces of the image. The default trace settings will apply automatically, highlighted in yellow, with the High Pass Filter checked. Drag the box around the area that includes everything you want to trace. After you have imported your image into Silhouette Studio®, open the Trace window and “Select Trace Area.”Ģ. This includes photos, clipart, and text.ġ. Silhouette Studio® doesn’t recognize color when tracing so a black and white image is great, but a high contrast color image can work too as long as it isn’t too detailed. (However, you can work with images of a lower quality. More on that later in the post.) Ideally, you want to choose an image that is: Let me help speed up the process by showing you the purpose of each of those sliders.įirst things first. If you have ever used the Trace tool you’ll know that, because every image/design/text has different attributes, it requires some trial and error with the sliders to get the trace you want. What is actually the function of those sliders? I’d love to see more in-depth instruction/learning of all the functions so that there is purpose behind using them and not simply trial and error.” “Everyone says turn on the High Pass Filter but no one explains what the High Pass Filter is. Recently, a blog reader asked a really great question about the Trace tool:
