All right.
Welcome back.
So in this video, we're talking about the quick selection tool and the magic one tool.
So let's head over to Photoshop and let's save this document from the previous lecture.
And when that is on, it closes out and we're gonna make a new file.
So let's go file new and I'll grab the default Photoshop size and hit.
Okay.
But before I hit, OK, I'm going to name this quick selection tool.
OK.
And then let's do file save as zero for quick selection tool.
All right, cool.
Now what I want to do is make a couple layers.
So just double click on this.
Make a couple.
Do two more, please.
OK.
So now we have four layers.
So what I'm going to do is in layer one, I gonna grab the Maki tool here, rectangular mercè tool and
I'm going to make this black men hold Alte and drag it over here and then hold it again and do it here
and do it here as well.
OK, delete these.
And now we have four layers right here.
OK.
So the first tool we're going to talk about is a quick selection tool.
So if I go right here with a little paint brushes with the LASO looking tool is are the selection toys.
I should say if I select that or if I had W, that's going to select the tool.
So here we go.
And if I click now with this tool, you have to have the layer selected.
So it's layer copy or layer one copy three selected.
Then I can only select layer one, copy three.
If I have layer one selected which is up here then I need to have control D to D select and then come
up here.
And what it's gonna do is it's gonna let me select a little bit or everything.
Now, you can select the whole page, but it's not going to allow you to do anything with any of the
other content.
It's only going to let you mess with this one.
So if I did this.
So I did then hit delete.
It's just going to work there, it's going to work anywhere else.
Her.
So that's the.
Quick selection tool and W is the keyboard shortcut for that.
Someone who controls you to undo all this and then control D the D select number and talk about the
magic one tool.
OK.
So the magic wand tools, the same idea.
Essentially what you're going to do is if you created a let's create one more layer here.
Give you a better example.
So let's say that I made this shape here and I wanted to select it.
So one way you can do it is control a dislike the whole area, or you can grab the magic wand tool W
or by clicking on.
The quick selection tool and then going down to Mattrick, one tool and what that's going to do is you
can select the whole image.
Or in this case, the shape.
So if I had controlled you to dislike that, I'd go to layer one.
I can select that layer as well.
So any objects in that layer I can select with the magic wand, too.
I use this tool all the time.
It's awesome.
OK.
So thanks for watching.
I'll see in the next lecture.
