If you’ve ever used a traditional art eraser, you know that they come in all shapes and sizes. The same is true for the eraser tool in Canva.
There are three different types of erasers you can use: the standard eraser, the polygonal lasso eraser, and the magic wand eraser. Each type of eraser has its own unique benefits and drawbacks.
The standard eraser is the most basic type of eraser. It works just like a traditional art eraser: simply click and drag to remove pixels from your image.
The standard eraser is great for small, precise edits. However, it can be difficult to use for larger edits because it is easy to accidentally remove pixels you didn’t mean to.
-To use the eraser tool, first select the object you want to erase.
-Then, click on the eraser icon in the toolbar.
-Click and drag the eraser over the area you want to erase.
-You can also adjust the size of the eraser by clicking on the drop-down menu next to the eraser icon.
-If you make a mistake, you can always undo your changes by clicking on the Undo button in the toolbar.
The polygonal lasso eraser is a more advanced type of eraser. It allows you to create a custom shape with your cursor, which you can then use to erase pixels within that shape.
This is great for making Targeted edits to large areas of your image. However, it can be difficult to create complex shapes with the polygonal lasso eraser.
The magic wand eraser is the most powerful type of eraser. It allows you to quickly and easily erase large areas of your image with a single click.
The magic wand eraser is great for making quick, drastic changes to your image. However, it can be difficult to control precisely where the tool will erase pixels.
Conclusion: So, which type of eraser should you use? That depends on what kind of editing you need to do. If you need to make small, precise changes, the standard eraser is a good choice.
If you need to make Targeted edits to large areas of your image, the polygonal lasso eraser is a better choice. And if you need to quickly and easily erase large areas of your image, the magic wand eraser is the best choice.
