Tips and Tricks to Remove Image Background with “Paint”
Although the background removal feature in “Paint” is quite smart and accurate, there are a few things you can do to improve the quality of the result. Here are some tips and tricks you can try:
- Choose an image that has a good contrast between the main object and its background. This will make it easier for “Paint” to detect the areas you want to delete or retain.
- Zoom in or out your image as needed. This will help you see details more clearly and edit hard-to-reach areas.
- Use the tool “Add” or “Remove” carefully and thoroughly. Don’t add too much or subtract areas, as this could deform the main object or leave unwanted background trails.
- If any part of the main object is missing or cut off after removing the background, you can use the “Select” tool to select that part and copy it to the appropriate place. The “Select” tool is shaped like a white box with a blue line, and you can use it to highlight the area you want to select. After that, right-click and select “Copy”, then right-click again in the desired place and select “Paste”.
- If you want to remove the background of an image that is a solid color, such as white or black, you can use the “Magic Select” tool found in “Paint 3D”. “Paint 3D” is a more advanced image editing application that is also available in Windows 11. You can open your image in “Paint 3D” by clicking the “Menu” button in the upper left corner of the “Paint” window, then selecting “Edit with Paint 3D”. After that, click on the “Canvas” tab and enable the option “Transparent canvas”. Then, click the “Magic select” button on the top toolbar, and follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
