Adjusting the Number of Points in Freehand Segments

You can increase or decrease the number of points in freehand segments of a mask by adjusting the Lasso Fit value. An entire garbage mask can consist of freehand segments, in which case the Lasso Fit value affects the whole garbage mask. Otherwise, the Lasso Fit value only affects the part of the mask drawn freehand.

The Lasso Fit parameter loses its influence over freehand segments of a mask if you have edited points as follows:

• Added or deleted points using the Add or Delete Edit modes
• Saved and loaded a garbage mask
• Started a new session with the application

To adjust the number of vertices using Lasso Fit:

1. If necessary, select the garbage mask you want to affect.
2. Drag the Lasso Fit field. Increase the value to decrease the number of points in the freehand segments of the mask. Decrease the value to increase the number of points in the freehand segments.

   Segments of the mask that have been drawn freehand are affected, while segments created by simple clicks remain unaffected.

   NoteIf you move vertices of a garbage mask and then change the Lasso Fit value, all the vertices snap back to the original position where they were first drawn, and all animation is lost. This occurs only if the Lasso Fit value retains its influence on the garbage mask.
