How to use Lasso tool in Adobe Photoshop?(Step by Step)
Answers
Answer:
The Lasso tool is useful for drawing freeform segments of a selection border. Select the Lasso tool , and set feathering and anti-aliasing in the options bar. (See Soften the edges of selections.) To add to, subtract from, or intersect with an existing selection, click the corresponding button in the options bar.
1.Select the Lasso tool from the Tools panel.
The tool looks like (well, yeah) a rope. You can also use the keyboard shortcut; press the L ke
2.Position the cursor somewhere on the edge of the element that you want to select.
The hot spot (the lead point) of the Lasso cursor is the end of the rope. If you need a little visual assistance, press your Caps Lock key, which switches your cursor to a crosshair
3.Trace around the element and try to capture only what you want to retain in your selection.
While you trace, a line forms that follows the movement of your mouse.
Don’t release your mouse button until you complete the selection by returning to the starting point to close the loop. When you release your mouse button, Photoshop thinks you’re done and closes the selection with a straight line from your endpoint to the starting point
5.Continue tracing until you return to your starting point; release the mouse button.
