MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / July 2007ANN: PPT Tutorial - Extract a subject from its background
New PowerPoint tutorial (Power Cut) submitted by Mukund Nadkarni. While Photoshop and other graphic editing software have Lasso Tool, this tutorial shows you how to extract portion of images from its background just using PowerPoint alone.

A variation of this approach would be to Copy and Paste Special the grouped images as a png into your PowerPoint slide. Then use the Transparency tool to eliminate the background (make sure the drawn object doesn't use a border and is filled with a color that contrasts the original inserted image.
