To remove the background from a photo using the Samsung photo editor, utilize the "Lasso" tool within the editing features. Here's a step-by-step guide:
- Open Photo in Gallery: Start by opening the desired photo in your Samsung Gallery app.
- Enter Edit Mode: Tap the "Pencil" icon, usually located at the bottom of the screen, to enter the photo editing mode.
- Select Lasso Tool: Look for an icon that resembles a "Dotted Circle" or "Lasso." This is the selection tool you'll use to outline the object you want to keep.
- Snap to Shape (Optional): Some Samsung photo editors may have a "Snap to Shape" feature, which can help create a more precise outline. If available, enable this option for easier object selection.
- Draw Around Object: Carefully draw a line around the object(s) you want to keep in the foreground. Ensure the entire object is enclosed within your selection.
- Confirm Selection: After completing the outline, you'll typically need to tap "Next" or a similar confirmation button.
- Adjust Border (If Necessary): Some editors allow you to adjust the thickness or smoothness of the border around your selection to refine the cutout.
- Complete Removal: Once satisfied with the selection, tap "Done" or "Save." The Samsung photo editor should automatically remove the background, leaving only the selected object(s). The resulting image will likely be saved as a separate file, potentially as a PNG with a transparent background, or sometimes with a white background if transparency isn't supported.
The background removal feature in Samsung's photo editor offers a convenient way to isolate subjects within your photos. The key is to accurately trace the object using the lasso tool, making use of any available "Snap to Shape" or edge-detection assistance for best results.
