How Do You Use Vanishing Point in Photoshop?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 1:43 pm

In Photoshop, the vanishing point filter allows you to draw lines that appear to recede into the distance. This can be useful for creating realistic backgrounds or for adding perspective to text.

To use the vanishing point filter, you first need to select an image with strong lines that converge at a single point. This could be a photo of a cityscape or a landscape with mountains in the distance. Once you have your image open in Photoshop, go to Filter > Vanishing Point.

The Vanishing Point dialog box will open. Here, you’ll see a grid overlaid on your image.

You’ll need to use this grid to draw your lines. To do this, click on the Create Plane tool and then click and drag out a line on the grid. As you do this, you’ll see a preview of your line appearing in the distance.

PRO TIP: Vanishing point is a Photoshop tool that allows you to create the illusion of depth and distance in your images. It can be used to create realistic 3D environments, or to make your photos look like they were taken in a different location entirely. However, it’s important to be aware that vanishing point can also be used to create fake 3D images that can fool the viewer into thinking they are seeing something that isn’t really there. If you’re not careful, you could end up creating a photo that looks like it was taken in a completely different place than it actually was. So, be sure to use vanishing point responsibly, and only use it when you’re sure that the results will be realistic and believable.

Once you’re happy with your line, release the mouse button and then click on the Commit button in the dialog box. You can continue drawing additional lines until you’re satisfied with the results. When you’re done, click OK.

Your lines will now be visible in the image. You can use the Move tool to adjust their position if needed.

You can also add text to your image using the Type tool. Just click on the location where you want to add text and then type away.

Keep in mind that when adding text, you’ll need to make sure that it’s legible by making it large enough or by adding a stroke around it. Otherwise, it may be too difficult to read against the busy background.
