Mode

Stacked Planar Cut-out

Try different processing modes if you aren't getting the desired effect. Stacked shapes extend over their neighbors but can sometimes leave gaps. Planar traces each boundary between two colors — better at not leaving gaps, but often more jagged. Cut-out attempts to trace each color exactly.

Detail

Speckle filter0 px²

Eliminates smaller, isolated groups of pixels.

Simplify0.0 px

Rounds over corners to smooth out lines.

Denoise1×

Reduces noise by softening the input image.

Corner angle60°

The turn angle that counts as a sharp corner — lower keeps more corners crisp, higher rounds them into curves.

Hidden controls

Detect primitives (neural)

A tiny neural net classifies each traced loop (circle, ellipse, rect, star…); a geometric check accepts the snap only when the exact shape fits within tolerance.

Fit Bézier curves Sub-pixel edges (AA-guided) Smoothness0.3 px

Smoothes the bezier curves more — usually best left at a minimum.

Centerline thin strokes

Thin ribbons (the sample's birds) are traced down their middle and drawn as a single stroked path, instead of outlining both edges. Experimental — off by default.

Max size

Downscale large images before tracing (speed vs. detail). Change re-runs the trace.
