There are two kinds of raster data that WiseImage can select.
First, select raster objects – the sets of raster dots that look like typical vector objects such as lines, circles, arcs, hatches, symbols, and texts. The intellectual object technology for raster object selection implemented in WiseImage makes it possible to edit a raster image using the methods similar to those used when handling vector objects in applications that process vector drawings.
Secondly, select of areas on images.

To select one or several areas on raster images:
