Click the image area that contains the pixels you want to match.
The selection marquee surrounds all matching pixels.
You can change the number of pixels you select by undoing the
selection, adjusting the Tolerance setting, and making a new
selection.
Modifying selections
Selections can be modified in various ways. You can modify a selection
by adding image content to it or by subtracting image content from it.
For example, in a picture of a person carrying a large sign, you can
select the sign by using the rectangular Selection tool and then add the
person to the selection by using the Freehand Selection tool.
After you create a selection, you can add to it.
For more information about modifying color-based selections and
removing specs and holes, see “Modifying selections” in the Help.
