Photoshop tools explained  -  marquee
This is a compilation and explanation of some tools on the Photoshop toolbar.I'm currently running the CS4 version of Photoshop on Windows, but it doesn't change much year by year.First, let's take a look at your toolbar.It should be on the left side of the screen (once Photoshop is on ).
If not, go to the top menu bar (with files, edits, etc )...) And click window ".A drop-down box should appear.Search for tools and click on it.The toolbar should appear.The toolbar consists of a large number of "tools" that you can use to edit photos in Photoshop.Each tool has a specific feature that can help you with a task.
Tools can be used together in various combinations to create different effects.Please forgive the length of the toolbar photo on the right side for being too long.But the close-Up image can better view the toolbar and each tool picture.
The rest of the hub below continues to explain each individual tool.Look at the toolbar photo above, and the first tool at the top of the toolbar is called "mobile tool ".It is a black arrow with a cross next to it.
To quickly select the tool, just press the V key on the keyboard.This tool is actually allowing you to move photos/selections anywhere in the work window pane.Your arrow keys can do the same thing, but it's much faster to use this tool.
When selecting a Picture/layer and activating this tool, a box with 8 squares is formed around it.These boxes are called "handles ".These --xa0The handle represents the way the image can be expanded/shrunk.Grab and dragxa0The handle located on the corner changes the width and height at the same time.
When you move the mouse a little further away from the corner handle, it becomes a curved double arrow head.This means that you can rotate the selection area.Tip: holding the "Shift" key on the keyboard will scale down/expand the image.
Their.
xa0Processing positioningxa0In the middle of the sidexa0Change the height or width.Never both.Watch out for your proportions!The next one on the toolbar is the box selection tool.To quickly select the box selection tool, press "M" on the keyboard ".
This contains some basic shapes that are used to select areas on the workspace.It will default on the rectangular shape selection box.You can change this by holding down the left mouse button until a new miniThe window came up.
You can then choose a variety of shapes.
There are four shapes to choose from: a rectangle, an ellipse (circle), a single-line selection box (select the pixels that go through), and a single-line selection box (select the pixels down ).The single line/column selection box will be used to select 1 row/column pixels.Fact: Pixels are the smallest units that can be controlled in the picture.
The next tool is interesting and has served me well over the years.The lasso tool is a choice tool for free flow, and the mouse and hand are the tools.It flows freely.This means that you can choose something that is unique to the curve you want to get.
This tool is a more useful rectangular box selection tool.Keep in mind, however, that mouse movement reflects what will be selected.So if your hands slide over the mouse, your choices will be disrupted and you will have to start over.
There are two other hidden tools in the lasso tool in case you have problems with the freely flowing tool.By holding down the left button on the picture of the lasso tool in the toolbar, another miniBar will pop upOther tools are: Polygon cable tool and magnetic cable tool.My favorite is the polygon lasso tool.You can choose where the next point is chosen, not the tool that flows freely.
However, if you are trying to get a curve in this tool, you have to do it a little bit.It basically only uses straight lines connected to each other to choose something.The magnetic cable tool is very special.The tool flows freely, but it captures certain pixels in the color range.
You either like this tool or hate it.
It is useful for selecting the edges of objects with clear color separation.To quickly switch to the lasso tool, just press "L" on the keyboard ".I have never used a quick selection tool in photoshop.
I don't even need it in my opinion.
But I will cover it for this center.
The quick selection tool will select any and all colors within the tool radius range and then select some colors.I have never used this tool.I don't think I have to do that either.On the other hand, the wand tool I have used is very useful!You can select this tool by pressing and holding the left mouse button on the quick selection tool picture on the toolbar until the Minibar shows up.Then, just click on the one that looks like a glowing wand.
The wand tool will select any and all pixels of the color of the clicked pixel when you click the mouse (depending on the settings of the wand ).This can be changed to create a widening color scheme to choose from.The higher the number on the wand setting, more pixels will be selected.
See photos for more explanations.
Press the "W" key on the keyboard to quickly select the tool.The crop tool is very basic.Select the tool, click and drag the photo area you want to keep (Photoshop will paint the unwanted area hat Gray), then you can make any adjustments to the crop and click Enter.Voila!Crop photos!However, the slicing tool is complex.
It needs you to know the HTML encoding.
The slicing tool is basically used for web design.Templates and layouts for web pages with URLs and links.When using this tool, you create "slices" and when you click on the tool (on the completed project), it takes you to different places on the website.
This can also be implemented on a different Adobe program called: Adobe Dreamweaver.Simply press the "C" key on the keyboard to select the crop tool.Describe the tool in a simple way;Its purpose is to select the color according to the selected pixel.
Quickly select this tool and press "I" on your keyboard ".There are different selection techniques in this tool.You can find different patterns in the drop-down box labeled "sample size.
"Point sample" means that the 1 pixel you choose will be the color you get.Different sample sizes only increase the size of the sample area from 1 single pixel to 3, 5 and higher ranges.Usually I just use the point sample settings.
The color sampling tool is simple.
Clicking on the Pixel/pixel range will pop up a small window telling you what color it is (in RGB/CMYK mode ).Hint: RGB -Red, green and blue.CMYK -Cyan, magenta, yellow, black.The ruler tool is also very simple.Clicking and dragging will pop up a window showing the angle and length, height and width and X and Y coordinates on the workspace.The note tool does what you think it does.
Leave notes for yourself.
This can be useful if you are exchanging.
PSD file (Photoshop document) that leaves notes for the next person ).Personally, I have never used this.The next section is probably the most interesting.There are so many things these tools can do.
I'm going to try to dig into these tools in depth as it seems to upset a lot of people.Use a point healing brush when something does not belong to an area.For example, a pimple or flaw on someone's face.
Change the size of the brush (located in the top left corner of the screen with the words "brush" on it) and you can change the range of pixels that the brush will affect.If the brush size is too large, you can manipulate pixels that you do not want to operate.If your brush size is too small, you will make the problem area larger.
A good medium for pleasure is to make the brush large enough to cover unwanted areas and then some.This will include pixels around the problem area.This will then eliminate the problem area by covering the problem area with the exact color range of the surrounding pixels.
Sometimes, this tool gets frustrating because people want to cover a lot of pixels at a time.Think about the wrinkles that extend to the face or the cracks on the sidewalk.Use this tool like a baby.You have to make it crawl before it can walk.
But don't let the baby run.
Dragging the brush all the time on one line can have a bad effect and cause more frustration.I like to take a moment and click along this line to avoid any errors.Remember: edit> Undo is your friend.Or keyboard enthusiasts use Ctrl Z.Yes, one more.By holding down the left mouse button on the point healing brush tool icon in the toolbar, you can start from mini-Pop-up barThe tool basically does the same thing, but adds a feature.
This tool is not just to click and let the surrounding pixels converge and eliminate your problem area, but to allow you to choose the pixels you want to use on the pixels around the problem area for a long time.In some cases this will work better than the spot healing brush.If the action is correct, you can click and drag a huge problem area and override it at once.
To select the Pixel you want to start, hold down "alt" on the keyboard and click the Pixel you want to use (not the Pixel you want to delete )!).But pay attention!The selected pixel area will move with the mouse.The "Alt \ 'ed \ 'area will move as the mouse moves.
You can choose which of the two tools you prefer to use.What the Patch tool does is select pixels and match them to the selected range of different pixels.It is another pixel deformation tool that is very useful in the right hand.
To use this tool, you must first select the pixel area you want to change.This action is very similar to the lasso tool.It flows freely.So whatever you're doing will change.The second part of this tool is to select the pixel area where you want the area you have selected to look like.
It copies and pastes pixels and then mixes them into the selected area in a tool.You can change the different settings for this tool.You can change whether the Pixel you want to select for the first time is the pixel that has been changed, or whether the Pixel you selected for the first time is the pixel that will drag any changes.
Personally, I prefer the first setting.
This setting is called Source.
The second setting is called: Destination.The Red Eye tool needs to do some work on it.I do not recommend using this tool.You can set the tool to 1% pupil size, which darkens the pupil to an unnatural level.
What this tool should do is dim the pupil and eliminate the "red eye" effect of the camera.It will work in some cases, but more often than not, it will fail.I found that using a burn tool on the pupil is a more effective way to eliminate someone's red eye.
!, But does not include as many features as possible.(How clear/faded it will appear) and auto erase (draw the background color on the foreground ).In CS4 I believe that the auto erase function is damaged and cannot workOr bad work.
When it is set, clicking on the pixel of the current foreground should cause it to draw on it with the background color.It's great if you paint on a colored background, but it doesn't work when the background is transparent..The color replacement tool is a simplified brush tool designed specifically to change the color in the image.
It must affect the different modes of the image color (found in the drop-down menu in the tool options bar) are hue, saturation, color, and brightness..Your source color will be selected.Then simply left-click and drag the mouse to replace the [insert selected mode] of the image within the brush size
