Hi Yuri,
I am already curious on this feature.
Is the function based on detection of differences in color, an edge detection or both?
In cases like your foto it is -more or less- easy
What about very detailed parts like hair or when the differences of colours are very small?
Do you know this new removal feature in Microsfts Word 2010? It works not too bad.
So we "landscapes generators" will become jobless in future

No, Werner, the editor works just like Photoshop.
The goal was to add Photoshop masking capabilities inside YoWindow.
I apologise, our estimation of BETA release date was wrong, we will show it to you probably in a week.

Before we have started editor development I have checked out Microsoft Office masking.
It is very impressive but it was too complicated for us to deliver in a short amount of time.
Here is the specification in case anyone interested

I have also found this plugin for Photoshop.
Very impressive!
I think this is the best masking tool in the world.

Hi Pasha

I have installed ononesoftware (demo) with Photoshop CS5
The technics is impressiv indeed. The download is 1,5 Gb .
The demo works 30 days and cost $195
Making a landscape is a peace of cake. Special with trees is very easy.

I think we need to spread the word about this plugin here on the forum an in FAQ.
