El comando muestra la ventana del diálogo “Editor de selección”. Este diálogo muestra la selección activa en la imagen actual y le da un acceso fácil a los comandos relacionados con la selección. Realmente, no tiene por fin editar las selecciones directamente, pero si está trabajando sobre una selección, es cómodo tener a mano todos los comandos relacionados, es más fácil pulsar sobre un botón que buscar comandos en el árbol de comandos de la barra de menú. El “Editor de selección”, tambien, ofrece algunas opciones avanzadas para el comando “A la ruta”.
- Los botones
-
La ventana del diálogo “Editor de selección” tiene algunos botones que puede usar para acceder cómodamente a los comandos de selección:
-
The Select All
button.
-
The Select None
button.
-
The Select Invert
button.
-
The Save to
Channel button.
-
The To Path
button. If you hold the Shift key while
clicking on this button, the
Advanced
Settings dialog is displayed. Please see the next section
for details about these options.
-
The Stroke
Selection button.
-
- La ventana de muestra
-
En la ventana de muestra, las áreas seleccionadas de la imagen son blancas, las no seleccionadas negras, y las áreas parcialmente seleccionadas en niveles de grises. Pulsar sobre esta ventana funciona como seleccionar por color. Vea el siguiente ejemplo.

El diálogo “Configuración avanzada de selección a ruta”, que obtiene al pulsar Mayús sobre el botón , contiene un número de opciones, la mayoría las puede configurar con un deslizador o una caja de texto. También hay una caja de control. Estas opciones las usan principalmente los usuarios avanzados. Son:
- Align Threshold
-
If two endpoints are closer than this value, they are made to be equal.
- Corner Always Threshold
-
If the angle defined by a point and its predecessors and successors is smaller than this, it is a corner, even if it is within Corner Surround pixels of a point with a smaller angle.
- Corner Surround
-
Number of points to consider when determining if a point is a corner or not.
- Corner Threshold
-
If a point, its predecessors, and its successors define an angle smaller than this, it is a corner.
- Error Threshold
-
Amount of error at which a fitted spline[6] is unacceptable. If any pixel is further away than this from the fitted curve, the algorithm tries again.
- Filter Alternative Surround
-
A second number of adjacent points to consider when filtering.
- Filter Epsilon
-
If the angles between the vectors produced by Filter Surround and Filter Alternative Surround points differ by more than this, use the one from Filter Alternative Surround.
- Filter Iteration Count
-
The number of times to smooth the original data points. Increasing this number dramatically, to 50 or so, can produce vastly better results. But if any points that “should” be corners aren't found, the curve goes wild around that point.
- Filter Percent
-
To produce the new point, use the old point plus this times the neighbors.
- Filter Secondary Surround
-
Number of adjacent points to consider if Filter Surround points defines a straight line.
- Filter Surround
-
Number of adjacent points to consider when filtering.
- Keep Knees
-
This check box says whether or not to remove “knee” points after finding the outline.
- Line Reversion Threshold
-
If a spline is closer to a straight line than this value, it remains a straight line, even if it would otherwise be changed back to a curve. This is weighted by the square of the curve length, to make shorter curves more likely to be reverted.
- Line Threshold
-
How many pixels (on the average) a spline can diverge from the line determined by its endpoints before it is changed to a straight line.
- Reparametrize Improvement
-
If reparameterization doesn't improve the fit by this much percent, the algorithm stops doing it.
- Reparametrize Threshold
-
Amount of error at which it is pointless to reparameterize. This happens, for example, when the algorithm is trying to fit the outline of the outside of an “O” with a single spline. The initial fit is not good enough for the Newton-Raphson iteration to improve it. It may be that it would be better to detect the cases where the algorithm didn't find any corners.
- Subdivide Search
-
Percentage of the curve away from the worst point to look for a better place to subdivide.
- Subdivide Surround
-
Number of points to consider when deciding whether a given point is a better place to subdivide.
- Subdivide Threshold
-
How many pixels a point can diverge from a straight line and still be considered a better place to subdivide.
- Tangent Surround
-
Number of points to look at on either side of a point when computing the approximation to the tangent at that point.
