When you run Image tracer; it will take whatever layers you have selected and combine them together into one image (regardless of if they’re already a vector or not) — then it will attempt to trace it into a new vector layer.
You can view the image it is tracing, by changing the dropdown in the options popup from ‘Original image’ to ‘Processed image’.
Read more about the settings in the documentation.
What's new
Version 4 · released Nov 3, 2022
- Added support for a new $0+ license option which adds a 20 second delay before placing the traced vector.
- This provides the option for everyone to pay as little as $0 to use the plugin indefinitely; but hopefully entices folks to consider paying for a Personal, Teams or Enterprise license.
