The dark mode remain in the left and the white mode stays in the right. If the background of the product is black and we want to bring white background then we need to conceal the black part .

We need to pull out the pointer until the black part is transparent. As we want to blend out the black color so we need to pull out the pointer in the right side to get the transparent effects on the photo. If we pull out the whole pointer on the right side , the image will look rough and the edges will look very disappointing . And this type of photo will not be accepted to upload on website. Why this thing happens ? Photo-shop is very crucial . One small mistake can damage the whole tasks and ruin the image quality. If we look very closely then we will be able to see that the pointer is divided into two parts . If we pull out the whole pointer on the right side then picture will look very rough and edges also . But if we hold the “Alt key” and take the half portion of the pointer into the right side then the image will look fine and black background will be removed easily and edges will look also soft. If we do everything perfectly , then this will create a lively picture . Important thing needs to be remembered The pointer or slider will not work if we do not double click on the picture . In a locked picture , slider will not work . If we hold the alt key and go to the left then the background will look more darker.

The background is a fine work of art. With the help of the right choice of background, we can highlight our product. It can increase our sale. Black background is very classic but sometimes black background does not look good especially when the product is deep black color or the product is too white color. We need to adjust it. If we keep the black background on these types of photo, it will not focus on the product photo. And the customer will not find the product interesting.
