hangdawg Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 (edited) hi is there a way to cut a image into pieces without affecting image the thing im doing almost requires that the whole image be made then broken down into like 4 or 5 parts so another program assembles it back thanks Edited January 12, 2011 by hangdawg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frontcannon Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 This forum's my last resort What do you mean with 'not affecting the image'? You're cutting it into 4/5 separate pieces, I'd think that affects it very heavily.

hangdawg Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) yeah but using the line tool and deleting the line id be losing the pixels that make up the line say if line is 1 or 2 pixels thick that would make the finish product that much shorter or higher and if cutting into say 4 or 5 pieces every line i made across to disect it id be losing pixels so if it started at say 40 pixels wide putting a line and deleting it it would end up being like 38 or 39 pixels wide afterward i guess its possible i seen where someone said make it a whole piece then turn it into pieces but they were using photoshop Edited January 13, 2011 by hangdawg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manc Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 yeah but useing the line tool and deleteing the line id be losing the pixels that make up the line say if line is 1 pixel thick deleting it to separate would make it a whole row that the pixels would be missing making the whole piece shorter than when i started Don't use the line tool.Use the selection tool then Move selected pixels Quote           Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangdawg Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) how by using it it moves the whole image it painted on a transparent background Edited January 13, 2011 by hangdawg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Select region, CTRL + C, add new layer :AddNewLayer: , CTRL + V. Go back to original layer, CTRL + I (inverts selection) CTRL + C, add new layer :AddNewLayer: , CTRL + V. Toggle original layer's visibility = off (not visible). Repeat this process to progressively disassemble the image into it's component parts.

mountnman Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 (edited) you could also use "canvas size" to increase overall denminsions without increasing the size of the picture-Image>Canvas size use the rectangle select tool to choose a square of the image and then the move selected pixel tool to seperate it from the rest of the pic Edited January 13, 2011 by mountnman Quote SARCASM- Just one of the many services I offer free to the public.
