Many of a time, we’ll need to cut out the background of photos and only save the foreground. In the following guide, we’re about to show you how to use Photo Cutter to cut out the background of a photo.
After starting inPixio Photo Studio Toolkit, you can choose Photo Cutter to initiate the program. Then add the photo from your computer, and you’ll see the panels on the right side of the program window. After that, select the CUT-OUT tool.
In the “cut-out” module, use the tool to paint areas you want to remove from the background.
There’re several options in the Cut-Out category, including the Brush Size tool and Feather tool.
Brush Size: You can use a paintbrush to determine which area of the photo to keep, and which area to cut out. The red brush enables you to pick up the area to remove, and the green brush determines which area to keep. The Eraser tool allows you to erase any of the brush marks you’ve made. The Brush Size tool is also helpful when you want to adjust the size of the brush.
Feather: This tool is used for blurring the edge of the kept area of the photo. If you drag the slider to a higher amount, the edge of the picture will be more blurry.
Highlight with a line, like this, a part of the background you want to disappear. Photo Cutter automatically selects the rest and removes it.
To add another part of the background you want to be removed, insert another highlight.
After applying the changes to your photo, you’ll get a picture with a transparent background. Now you can save the picture to your computer by clicking the Save button at the top middle of the main interface.
Congratulations! Kindly press the diskette button and save your image file.

I don't seem to have the save button in the Pro version after removing the background.
How do I do this in the Photo Studio 11 Pro Version?
Thanks, Walter
