Background Removal in CorelDraw/Corel Photo Paint

This video was done in Corel X6 but will work for older versions also.
This video shows how to remove a background from a photo. We also use a drop shadow and power clip to finish our project.

[@kpoteetwrmom]

great instructional video....easy to follow

[@CTX125]

That was sweet! Great Video!

[@NormBa]

Yes I do this. But it can be labor intensive. I wonder if there's an intelligent s/w just for this specific application which has the smarts to differentiate object from background. That would be really nice.

[@apxpandy4965]

Great video - very helpful! Thanks!

[@SciFiChatterMike]

[@terackie]

I've got corel draw essentials 4 but I don't have the "cut out lab" in corel photo paint, is my programme to old?

[@AG-vr5xu]

EXCELLENT !

[@michellemccartan2761]

Thanks for the video, very helpful! This is almost exactly what I'm trying to do, but my image has several straight lines. How do you draw straight lines using the highlighter tool? The usual control key doesn't seem to work in the cutout lab, and my freehand straight lines are really bad (unless I'm doing it wrong which is totally possible!). I'm using Corel Draw x8.

[@Coreldrawhelp]

As far as I know there is not a way to force a line to be "Straight". But it should not matter that much. As long as the highlight covers the line, the exact "Straightness" should be determined by the artwork not the highlighter.

[@michellemccartan2761]

Thank you for answering, I guess I can make the highlight tool wider & then clean it up afterwards.

[@SandpiperN121PP]

Great tutorial... but unfortunately my version of Corel doesn't have the add / remove detail option... so I cannot fix the cutout after I do it.

[@socalgal007]

So helpful !

[@patrishaannnicolemiralpes869]

This helped a lot thank you

[@castellolouis]

I have been using photo paint 9 to edit photos. I cut out the background a lot and it's very tedious on that program. I saw this video and then purchased Paint shop pro X6. It does not seem to have cutout lab. Do you know what's up with that?

[@Coreldrawhelp]

whitneydrums This tutorial is on Corel Photo Paint, I have no idea what is available with Paint Shop Pro.

[@ganugm]

tnx good job

[@wenwen6232]

I have a problem with the picture, the "edit bitmap" button is grey and i cant click it. What can I do?

[@Coreldrawhelp]

The first thing to check is that the "Bitmap" is selected. then the button should be active.
Also make sure the object selected is a "Bitmap" not a Document Object.

[@adrianoidano926]

[@Coreldrawhelp]

You can make the Oval any shape like and it will give you the same effect.

[@francizarmymenseries5296]

i cannot find power click..im using corel x5

[@nammymoegan]

I got coreldraw x4, after i click effect>power click>Power click inside Container. It just show me this sentence :"the object you selected is invalid."
How can I do? Thank you for helping

[@Coreldrawhelp]

The object you select can not be part of a any kind of group. This could be the problem.

[@elishabellon6279]

im following the instruction but when it comes on 10:24, I cannot find the power clip by using right click just only edit bitmap etc. almost done but somethings missing,the power clip.. Im using coreldraw x3.

[@NataliaZagoriy]

I have the same issue...

[@bilalremzi196]

thank you

[@mikeraymond5474]

How can I save the picture without the background for use later in different projects. When I try and save it always adds a white background to it.

[@Coreldrawhelp]

Just save the CorelDraw file and reload it and place any background you want behind the cut image. Save the .cdr file.

[@iqbalhussain8664]
