TIPS
More Options!
You can pull a secondary plane
around a 90-degree corner and
add items in perspective to
different sides of a structure. You
can even rotate a secondary plane
by any amount to fit an angled
area of a structure such as a roof.
Did You Know?
You can use the Zoom tool in the
Vanishing Point dialog box ( )
and click and drag to enlarge the
area where you plan to apply the
anchor points of the plane. You
can also zoom-in temporarily as
you place or adjust the anchor
points by pressing Ô+spacebar
(Ctrl+spacebar) and clicking and
dragging over the area.
Important!
You can use the Vanishing Point
filter to increase the size of the
building beyond the boundaries of
the existing photo. Increase the
canvas size first by clicking Image ➪
Canvas Size, and then add width
or height to one side of the
existing image.
