Frequently-asked questions

How can I access AI Grab in Linearity Curve?

When you import a photo and keep it selected, the AI Grab button will appear in the content-aware Inspector panel. Just click or tap the button, and let the software automatically lift the subject from the background. Once the cut-out is ready, you can reposition and edit it just like any other design element.

What does AI Grab do?

AI Grab in Linearity Curve automatically isolates the subject of your photo and creates a subject layer while keeping the background layer intact.

When you import a photo and select it, AI Grab quickly lifts the subject from the background and places it as a new, editable layer in the layers panel. This allows you to easily reposition or edit the subject without affecting the background, streamlining your workflow for faster adjustments and creative flexibility.

What's the different between AI Grab and Background Removal?

Both AI Grab and Background Removal in Linearity Curve are designed for creating photo cutouts, but they work in slightly different ways. Background Removal cuts out the background, leaving only the foreground subject in the document. In contrast, AI Grab isolates the subject without removing the background, allowing you to drag to reposition the selection while keeping the background intact.

What selection tools do designers use?

Designers can find these selection tools in design software like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Affinity Designer,  CorelDRAW, and Linearity Curve.

In Adobe Photoshop, tools like the marquee, lasso, magic wand, and pen tool are widely used for basic and complex object selection. Additionally, Photoshop offers advanced features like Select Subject and Refine Edge for detailed selections.

Adobe Illustrator provides similar tools, such as the lasso tool and direct selection tool, for selecting vector objects or anchor points.

In Affinity Designer, you can use the marquee tools, lasso tool, and pen tool for precise selections.

CorelDRAW offers basic selection tools like the pick tool for object selection and node editing for complex and detailed selections in vector graphics.

In Linearity Curve, the AI Grab feature allows you to effortlessly isolate your photo subject by automatically separating it from the background.

How should I use the Magic Eraser?

Simply import your photo and select the Magic Eraser tool icon on the Toolbar in Linearity Curve. Then, glide your stylus or cursor over the unwanted area, and it will be instantly removed once you release your pen or finger. Create movements just like you're drawing a path with Brush Tool. 

How does Background Removal in Linearity Curve work?

Linearity’s Background Removal Tool is similar to cutting out something on paper, but digitally. Its custom machine-learning algorithm detects the edges of the main subject in an image and separates it from the background, leaving the background transparent. The result is a crisp photo cut-out that’s ready to use in any design.
