Under Begin Trace, adjust the sliders.
Note the following:
- Sliders control the source image.
- Sliders for Color tolerance and Recognition tolerance are dynamic.
- Set Color tolerance towards the left to increase color precision, and decrease color deviation.
- Set Recognition tolerance towards the left to increase the precision with which the trace follows the source geometry.
Click Apply.
You can clear Show source image so that only the vector sketch elements display when you create the sketch.
Click to create the sketch.
