Abstract
In implementations of image content snapping guidelines, a guidelines segmentation system includes modules, such as an image pre-processing module to reduce the image size of a digital image if the image size exceeds an image size threshold. An object segmentation module segments objects depicted in the digital image and identifies each object by a bounding border that delineates an object region boundary. An edge detection module receives a segmented object and determines object external edges and object feature edges from the segmented object, and identifies object corners of the object. A snapping guidelines module determines image content snapping guidelines of an object depicted in the digital image, the image content snapping guidelines for an object determined based on the bounding border of the object region boundary, the object external edges, the object feature edges, and projected snapping guidelines that extend from the object corners of the object.
