  • Editing dynamically selected portions of target images in a mask-based editing interface
    Patent number: 10380723
    Abstract: In some embodiments, an image editing application stores, based on a first selection input, a selection state that identifies a first image portion of a target image as included in a preview image displayed in a mask-based editing interface of the image editing application. An edit to the preview image generated from the selected first image portion is applied in the mask-based editing interface. The image editing application also updates an edit state that tracks the edit applied to the preview image. The image editing application modifies, based on a second selection input received via the mask-based editing interface, the selection state to include a second image portion in the preview image. The edit state is maintained with the applied edit concurrently with modifying the selection state. The image editing application applies the edit to the modified preview image in the mask-based editing interface.
