Using Selection Tools
While doing any work in a document or before placing an order, we have to choose the item, picture, text or part of it on which that work will be done or that order will be applied. When working in Photoshop, it is much more important and before doing any work, it is necessary to choose the right part of the picture on which you want to do that work. The result of wrong choice will also be wrong.
There are many methods or tools available for selection in Photoshop,
so that you can choose only the right part completely. Any command applies only to the chosen part, meaning you can edit only the selected part of the canvas. That is the active part. If you want to place an order that applies to any other part or is applied to the entire canvas, you must either make a new choice or click on a blank space from the selection tool or press D (Ctrl + D) with the control Pressing should cancel the selection.
There are mainly three selection tools available in Photoshop:
Marquee Tools, Lasso Tools and Magic Wand. With the help of these tools, you can choose from a single picture to a single pixel. In addition to this, three other selection tools are available: Move Tool, Crop Tool The selection below shows all the selection tools and their pop-up menus.
Using Marquee Tool
Marquee Tool mainly consists of two
Rectangular Marquee and Elliptical Marquee, also known as Oval Marquee. As is clear from their names, you can choose the order: rectangular and elliptical part with their help. At some point one of these tools may be chosen. To select another, hold the mouse button for a moment by bringing the mouse pointer to the tool that will open its pop-up menu. You can move the mouse pointer to that pop-up menu and click any tool and select.
The methods of using these tools are as follows -
Select the marquee tool you want from the tool box.
Move the mouse pointer or cursor over the canvas, where it will turn into a sign of the cross.
Move the cursor to the part of the canvas you want to select, hold down the mouse button and hold it in the desired direction by pressing it. The boundary line of the part chosen by this will be visible from the broken lines.
Release the mouse button once the required size is formed. This will select that part and will appear surrounded by moving lines like ants.
If you press the shift button while releasing the mouse button, the part to be chosen will be Perfect Square and Circular respectively.
You can choose multiple parts at once, for this, after making the first choice, you should press the shift key before clicking the marquee tool next time. In this way, if you want, you can also change the tool, thus you can choose many parts at once by making a choice. If the selected parts are coming at each other, then Photoshop will combine those parts and the same part will look like an ant surrounded by lines.
If you want some part of a chosen part to be removed from the election, this can also be done in Photoshop. For this you should click the Alt button before clicking the tool to select the part to be removed after making a choice. In this way, you can choose the part of the desired activity by mixing the parts that you choose and leave.
How to Work With Lasso Tool in Photoshop
With the Marquee Tool you can select parts with some regular attractors, but sometimes this does not serve our purpose, because we have to choose objects of Irregular shape, such as in a photo. One person's face, a flower from a vase or a tree from a scene.
This type of selection can be done with the help of the Lasso tool. In this, it is very important for your hand to be clean, with this your mouse and mouse pad should be clean enough to record even a little movement of the hand.
The Method of Using The Lasso Tool is as follows: -
Select the Lasso tool from the toolbox or press L, this will change the shape of the cursor on the canvas. Click on a border line of the item you want to select and hold the mouse button and carefully drag the cursor around the border line. This will show a solid line forming the path of the cursor when you are nearing the full selection, release the mouse button. This will make Photoshop complete by itself and the part you choose will appear surrounded by moving lines like ants.
It is possible that on choosing this way, that picture may not have come out right and some part of it has been left here or there or the extra part has been selected. In such a situation, you can remove the selected part by pressing the shift key just like a marquee tool.
