ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments of a system and method for angular image selection are described. Embodiments may include a graphics application that may receive input indicating a first displacement of a control from a first location of an image to a second location of the image. The angle of the first displacement may be non-zero with respect to horizontal and vertical axes of the display. The graphics application may receive input indicating a second displacement (perpendicular to the first displacement) of the control from the second location to a third location of the image. The graphics application may generate a rectangular selection area on the image such that two sides of the rectangular selection area are parallel to the first displacement and two other sides of the rectangular selection area are parallel to the second displacement. The graphics application may perform an image editing function on the selected portion of the image.
