## Segmentation

Segementation create raster bitmaps. You can use various shapes to add or remove pixels.

{% hint style="info" %}
When you draw a shape using segmentation labels, it's like painting an image with the shape, thus it doesn't keep points of the shape once you drew it.&#x20;

If you want to modify the shape of a bitmap, you need to add more pixels using a shape or use eraser tools to erase unwanted pixels.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## Vector

Vector shape consists of single or multiple points.

### Edit a shape

You can use the `Selector` tool to select a shape. You can move or delete the entire shape, or edit an individual point to modify the shape.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
You can double-click a point to remove it.
