Using the Mask and Loupe Shapes

You’ll notice two more options when you click the Shapes button on the Markup toolbar, Mask and Loupe. These offer an alternative way to call things out in your images.

Mask shape: The Mask shape is a sort of a reverse shape. Click the Shapes button and then click the Mask button. A rectangle appears on your image. Inside of it, the image remains the same, while everything outside darkens (Figure 51). Figure 51: Mask highlights a rectangular area while darkening the surrounding area. The blue adjustment handles work as you’d expect to change the rectangle’s size. To position the rectangle over the portion of the image you want to highlight, you must, click outside the rectangle to select it, not inside, and then drag it into place with your pointer outside the rectangle.
