Image Snapping
Cursor snapping is a standard method for providing precise pointing
in direct manipulation graphical interfaces. In this paper, we
introduce image snapping, a variant of cursor snapping that works
in image-based programs such as paint systems. Image snapping
moves the cursor location to nearby features in the image, such as
edges. It is implemented by using gradient descent on blurred versions
of feature maps made from the images. Interaction techniques
using cursor snapping for image segmentation and curve tracing are
presented
