Masking Pro
Tackle the most challenging masking job with the improved Mask Pro 4 from onOne Software. Based on the concept of “keeping” or “dropping” colors, the plug-in shows you the exact color values to be kept or dropped from masks. According to your selections, the Mask Pro algorithm then removes only those colors from the image. Other features include built-in training videos that explain each tool and when to use it, support for Wacom tablets and improved navigator windows showing multiple views while masking a subject. List Price: $159. Contact: onOne Software, (888) 968-1468, www.ononesoftware.com.
