Selecting areas of similar color
The Magic Wand tool allows you to select areas of pixels that are similar in color. By adjusting
the Magic Wand’s Tolerance and Edge options in the Property inspector, you can control how
the Magic Wand selects pixels.
To select an area of pixels of similar color range:

the Magic Wand. If you enter
0

tone are selected. If you enter
65
, a wider range of tones is selected.
