About this plugin

Convert any selection(Layer, Frame, Image … ) into a vector. It can even keep its colour.


Tips to be tracing like a pro:

  • Resolution matters, a highly pixelated image will mean that the pixel will get picked up by the tracing algorithm resulting in wavy edges.
  • Selecting the Outline Trace will give you a higher level of detail, but the output will be in black and white.
  • When selecting an image layer, Quick Tracing will use the original image; if you trace an image that has been cropped, or altered, just frame it and run the plugin on the parent frame.
  • If you have a big image, over 2M pixels, it will get downsized before tracing. You can frame the selection, scale it down with the scale tool, and then run the plugin on the parent frame.
