Hi!
I began to use this brilliant tool and very glad of it.
One thing I'd like to understand how I could make this ->
begin: I have one picture;
final: inside this original picture I have saying two parts of original picture (see picture below: there was one picture, I cut top edged part and bottom edged part from original one then I mixed these parts in different picture I applied here).
But I don't want to copy selected areas and then paste them in other picture...etc.
Can it be inside one and only picture done or need to make new picture?

Re: Different parts of picture inside same picture
Hi Victor,
To do this you just need to first make a copy of the "background" so that the original is not destroyed when you make changes:
To do this you just need to first make a copy of the "background" so that the original is not destroyed when you make changes:
- Open the image, click on the background to select it and press Ctrl+C to copy it. Then press Ctrl+V to paste the copy. If you look in the object list you will see that there is now a second copy.
- Use the mask editor to make your paper edge cut version for the first copy (the one that is currently selected)
- Then select the other copy in the object list and use the "Bring to front/top" tool in the toolbar to move it to the top if necessary.
- Use the mask editor to make the paper edge cut version for that copy and arrange everything as necessery.
- Click on the Auto-Resize tool in the toolbar (left of the Zoom tool) to arrange everything neatly.

Hi!

As I try to make it less by picture edge mouse drugging this picture is changed its own image (the image becomes the broken one)... (see picture below).

Hi Victor,
There is no simple cropping tool in Impict, that is one of its limitations. See the Impict help for instructions on how to emulate cropping, in this topic:
Step-by-Step Procedures > Tips and Tricks > Cropping Images with Lens Objects
I don't really understand what you are trying to ask here but the blue background is probably the background color of the image, which you will see behind any objects. It is normally set to white. You can change it in File > Properties. When you use the Auto-Resize button the canvas/background is resized so that all the objects touch the borders, but if there is space between the objects you will see the background color.

Re: Different parts of picture inside same picture
Tim, I'll try to ask step by step...Tim Green wrote:I don't really understand what you are trying to ask...
1. I cut the part of original image.
2. Now I need this part would be hidden in the original picture (using the cut button - scisors - I couldn't do it).
3. After I deleted this cutting part from original picture I need the new (without cutting part) picture re-sizing.
4. Finally I've got a new picture without cutting part and having new really shape (consedering cutting picture's part NOT in final picture).
How does it do?

Hi!
I found it myself.
Let this information occupies your Impict help section
What I've done you'll catch me clear:
1. Opened the picture in Impict.
2. Copy some part of it.
3. Delete original picture. the Background became empty (without picture).
4. Pasted a copy part of picture in the empty background.
5. Autosized it.
There's a new picture without before original shape picture.
Sorry but I didn't found this typical operation in Impict help...
