Motif edge in. Cut path out.
Extract clean outer contours from transparent PNGs or clear subjects, add cut margins, and send paths to the artboard as vectors, masks, or cut layers.
- Clean outer contours from alpha or clear motifs
- Adjustable cut margins
- Vector, mask, or cut-layer handoff
Every function, at a glance.
The starting point for every contour calculation — an image in the "Original" preview pane.
Determines which image channel the foreground mask is built from.
Determines which of the detected sub-contours end up in the final cut path.
Controls that shape the binary foreground mask before it is traced into polygons. Every change auto-updates the preview after a short delay.
Controls that determine how the mask becomes a clean, engravable/cuttable vector path.
Determines the physical size the cut path is exported at, or inserted into the Artboard at.
Three preview panes show the processing stages side by side — no separate toggles, all three are always visible.
Downloads the current cut path as a file, independent of the Artboard or laser.
These actions differ depending on how Cut Contour was opened. If the image came from Laser Control (image object → contour), only "Apply & back to laser" appears. On a standalone launch from the tool directory, "Send to laser" and the three Artboard options appear instead.
