Step 1: Grab the Quick Selection toolĪdobe Photoshop groups things into sets of tools that work in a similar way. Let’s take a look at how to cut out an image using this tool.
So this is a tool that works best when you have large blocks that are clearly separated by color, contrast, or focus. The wonderful thing about this brush is that you can just make broad strokes, and it will automatically find the edges of the area to make the selection more precise. This tool is based on a brush that you will use to ‘paint’ the area that you want to select – there are Photoshop plugins that can help with this, but the integrated tool has become so good with the latest versions, that they are no longer necessary.
