You can use the ‘Smooth’ option to edit images that appear to have rough or hairy edges.

Before	After

Some raster images have a “hairy” appearance. Smooth removes the “hairs” from the raster image.

Click or select Raster Effects Menu > Smooth.

Click to undo.

Special note for color images

If you are working with a color raster image you can modify the way that Smooth works by selecting a Pick Color or Color Layers.

Before	After: no Pick Color, no Layer Colors

If no Pick Color or Layer Colors are selected, Scan2CAD smooths “hairs” of any color that project into a white background.

Before	After: Pick Color = blue

If a Pick Color is selected, Scan2CAD smooths Pick Colored “hairs” regardless of the color they project into.

Before	After: Layer Colors = blue and gray

If Layer Colors are selected, Scan2CAD smooths Layer Colored “hairs”, regardless of the color they project into.
