Slicing image in to different irregular parts.


Recommended Posts


Hello,
I need to slice in AffPho a building in different parts that will be used in animation.
These parts will not be regular.
I want to export the slices as PNG to rebuild the building before it falls.

I looked at the slice tool but it seems to be geometrical only.
Is there any way of achieving this beside doing one piece at a time copying and pasting on different layers?

Would it be better to do it in AffDesigner?

Thanks.

By irregular do you mean shards or just squiggly shapes i.e rounded edges?

Yes shards or geometrical shapes with irregular angles and sides.
No rounded edges.

UPDATE: Decided to do it in AffPHO. Used the pen tool with a 1 pixel  stroke to isolate sections and have a good registration of each stroke.
Then I selected each section and copied that part of original image.
Pasted back on it's own layer.

Ended up with the whole building in 8 parts.
