  • The Content-Aware Tracing or auto-tracing is something you always had to do in Illustrator. But not anymore! From now on you can use the Content-Aware Tracing Tool (under Pen Tools) to 'auto trace' pixel graphics with one click. Just select the tool and click on edges in your graphic. Photoshop will try to detect potential paths and create them for you.
    No more tedious manual path creation.
    Since this is still experimental you have to go into the settings under 'Edit - Preferences - Technology Previews...'.
    Here check the box for 'Enable Content-Aware Tracing Tool'.
    When you restart Photoshop now the tool will be available under the Pen Tool.

    This is huge! I had no idea it was there. Thank you so much. To combine with Make Selection means you don't even need to leave PS.

    what's incredible is not to have that in Photoshop. It's to have that... hidden. I mean how the f.... can we find a tool if it needs first to be activated (+ a restart) in order to be used. Damn weird. It feels like using Blender and its tons of inactivated add-ons. Thanks for the tip. Much useful !

    How are you able to enlarge the image after the paths have been made? I get as far as that but then you enlarge it but I can’t tell what your option you have selected to be able to do that. If I’m on the path tool, it won’t allow me to scale from there and when I select the move tool I can’t enlarge it from that either.

      Well the tutorial is titled "Content-Aware Tracing ..." ...and not ..."Photoshop Basics...." I'm focusing on one specific task because viewers really reaaally hate lengthy tutorials and want a specific answer right away. I can think of 15 scenarios what to do with that path once traced but that would be a 2 hour long video which no one would watch. To answer your question....once the path is selected press Ctrl/CMD + T to bring up the transform box and resize the path.

    • @videomarknet

      you can export it to Illustrator and/or tweak the path like any other path. In this scenario it's used to resize a rather small resolution bitmap image without any artifacts.

Also do we use logos such as bitmaps or vector graphics in illustrator and photoshop when using them together? In order to tweak the design what tool do we use for illustrator and what tools do we use for photoshop

      let me ask in return...how am I supposed to know what is going on on your end? Half of the very short 4 minute tutorial I'm explaining where to find the tool. Even repeating the process at the end of those endless 4 minutes ....I know it's ridiculous of me to ask someone to watch a 4 minute tutorial to learn something...while they could spend 2 hours of their precious lives watching a Joe Rogan podcast. What else can I possibly do to make it work on your end? I don't know if you are on the latest Photoshop version? I don't know your PC specs? And still I'm getting 'doesn't work, help?" ...you didn't even bother writing more than 8 words (eight!) to outline the problem and yet you are expecting a productive response from me to make that tool magically appear on your end? How is everyone expecting INSTANT gratification nowadays and putting zero effort into anything?
