image slicing

Postby aspquestion on Tue Jun 30, 2009 7:28 am

Hello
I have an image that I will slice to smaller parts.
The slice tool allows me to only draw straight lines.
For some reason, I need to slice the image by drawing on it and without the use of straight lines. I will draw many curves
How can I do this?
Thank you

The slice tool is used for Web Pages so don't use that.

The "easiest" way, I think, to accomplish your goal would be to merge the layers and then use the lasso tool to make your selections. Once a selection is made a simple Copy / Paste will give you the "slice" you are looking for.

Make sure you save a backup of your image before you begin in case something goes horrible wrong - you cannot unmerge the layers once merged.

...or can you use the copy merged command (ctrl+Shift+c), wich doesn't need the merging part.
