There are two selection types that we can draw with the Object Selection Tool: Rectangle and Lasso.
Note that these options need to be set before drawing your selection since they only apply to the next selection you make. Let’s take a quick look at a few important options for the Object Selection Tool in the Options Bar. The Object Selection Tool is brand new as of Photoshop CC 2020. Just click on the first point and move the pointer along the path or outline you wish to follow and finish the selection by going back to the original point. It follows lines and outlines like a magnet, which makes it easier to select elements with contours. It is a very useful outlining tool as it is more precise than the other lasso tools. It allows you to select freely based on the points. Instead, just click on different points along a path that you want to select. This selection tool is restricted to polygonal outlines but is easier to use than the lasso tool because you do not have to drag the pointer around. The polygon lasso tool allows you to make freehand selections, but its contour is made up of straight lines. The lasso tool allows you to create a freehand selection. To do this, just click and drag the pointer around an area you want to select. This allows you to avoid areas that you do not want to include. The lasso tool works like the marquee tool except that it gives you the ability to move around areas freely without restriction. It defines the border as a 1-pixel wide row or column. You can use this to get a general shape selection, and then use other Photoshop selection tools for more complicated shapes. You would use this for things that are circular or rectangle, obviously, but they have to be perfect shapes. To use it, just click, hold, and drag around an area you want to select. The marquee tool is limited by selecting rectangular and circular shapes. There are two types of this tool the rectangular and the circular tool. The Marquee tool is the most basic selection tool available in Photoshop. In the following paragraph, I will list the selection tools used in Photoshop 2020 Knowing the selection tools and their power and limitation will help you a lot when you want to change the brightness, contrast, and other characteristics of a certain area instead of the whole picture. Among these powerful tools is the ability to select areas of an image for more precise handling. These tools and options offer you great versatility. The power of Photoshop lies within its huge number of tools and editing options.
This is called localized or selective image editing. By selecting specific areas, you can edit and apply effects and filters to portions of your image leaving the unselected areas untouched. Photoshop offers a number of selection tools and commands to select your desired portion of your photo.
