New! CMYK color support: work directly with CMYK images instead of converting to RGB and losing color accuracy. This new feature helps ensure that KnockOut 2 fits into any workflow. New! Zoom tool: gain greater control and flexibility by zooming in on an image at predefined zoom levels using a drop-down list.
New! Touchup tools: perform detailed corrections to masked images with the brush and eraser tools, ensuring your cleaned-up images are virtually indistinguishable from the originals. Enhanced! Polygonal Line tool: mask large, complex images faster and more easily by using the polygonal mode to define your selection by points or freehand. Transition Complexity: utilize four settings to describe the amount of detail in the foreground and background area of an image, and create a more precise mask by choosing the setting that’s appropriate for the image Exceptional speed and productivity. Enhanced! Adobe Photoshop compatibility: as an Adobe Photoshop plug-in, KnockOut 2 features shortcut keys, menus, and commands similar to those in Adobe Photoshop.

If the image was previously saved, KnockOut 2 will revert to the last saved state.
Retain the fine details of transparent objects such as fire, glass, and ice. Select image elements that were previously impossible to capture including hair. Preserve the transparency of shadows and highlights to create truly realistic images. Multiple Undo/Redo: with up to 99 levels of Undo/Redo, you can go back to different stages of your work rather than starting from scratch. Specify how many Undo or Redo levels you require, and select which shortcut keys you prefer to use for Redo. Automatic error correction: avoid costly or time-consuming mistakes before they happen. KnockOut 2 automatically prevents you from making selections that will cause errors Powerful new masking tools.
New! Property Bar: take advantage of quick access to commonly used tools. Auto Outside Object, for example, lets you automatically create an outside selection after having created an inside selection on the image. Background insert: insert Adobe Photoshop, JPEG, Macintosh PICT and TIFF images as a background after processing the foreground of an image. KnockOut 2 also includes a library of images that can be inserted, or you can import your own images.
Inside Object and Outside Object tools: use the Inside Object tool to draw the marquee selection lines that define the color in the interior of the transition area or the foreground object, and use the Outside Object tool to draw the lines that define the color in the background of the transition area. Underlay Color Palette: see your masked image on different colored backgrounds by displaying the foreground of a processed image against various colors.
KnockOut 2 is a fast and powerful masking tool plug-in for Adobe Photoshop, Corel PHOTO-PAINT, and Painter 7 that helps graphics professionals mask complex or detailed objects to create high-end photo composites. Complex masking, especially masking irregular or transparent edges, can be a slow, laborious process that reduces graphics professionals productivity and limits their creativity. While most image-editing applications contain some sort of masking functionality, few tools exist that let users mask complex, detailed images both quickly and easily, while still retaining all of the properties of the original image. KnockOut 2 addresses this problem by giving graphics professionals the functionality they need to mask virtually any object and create stunning composites with masked images that are identical to the original images. KnockOut 2 simply and quickly raises the quality of photo composites, while dramatically increasing user productivity. Because it uses complex algorithms to mask objects, KnockOut 2 lets users mask detailed objects, such as hair, smoke, water, glass and shadows, in a fraction of the time. Combined with a variety of new and enhanced features, KnockOut 2 gives graphics professionals functionality that exceeds the masking tools in standard imaging applications.
KnockOut 2 has a number of tools that make separating the foreground object from the background significantly less time-consuming than traditional masking techniques. As a plug-in, KnockOut 2 integrates seamlessly into any workflow. It is intuitive and designed specifically to serve as a masking tool for users already familiar with Adobe Photoshop. To this end, it features a similar user interface as well as similar shortcut keys.
