Chapter 7: Selecting
o modify part of an image in Adobe
Photoshop, you first select the area you
want to edit. A selected area is indicated by
a dotted selection border, also called a selection
marquee. The area outside the selection border is
protected while you move, copy, paint, or apply
special effects to the isolated area.
You can choose from a variety of specialized tools
for creating selection borders. You can also create
selections using the pen tool, which produces
precise outlines called paths. You can make
more sophisticated selections using masks. (See
Chapter 10, “Using Channels and Masks.”) For
information on editing selections, see Chapter 8,
“Editing and Retouching.”
Making selections
You make selections by clicking and dragging with
the marquee, lasso, polygon lasso, or magnetic
lasso tool, or by targeting color areas with the
magic wand tool or the Color Range command.
The choices associated with a selection tool appear
in its Options palette. Making a new selection
replaces the existing one.
