• Impossible to use the magic wand on hidden forms

  I try to use the magic wand on certain forms which had a clipping mask applied to them, and he does not select anything, although the Lasso seems to work when I drag it over the same shape. Forms that do not work are those used to hide other images inside them.

  In isolation mode in order to access individual entities or paths of output / disassociate.

• Improvement of a line by using the magic wand

  We use Photoshop a lot, so this may be a simple question, but I was unable to get something to happen.

  I have a transparent GIF file, which presents a series of counties in my State.  This is just a glimpse of the thin black line of these.  That's all that's on this GIF, though this file is merged into another file that is a topographic map.

  I need to make the outlines of the County in a thicker line so that they will stand out more.  I am able to grasp the lines by using the magic wand (which seems the natural thing to do), but from there I can not understand how to increase the width of the line.

  It is an older version of Photoshop, we had for years, so I need this work accordingly.

  Thanks for any help you can offer.

  No need for a selectionm, use the filter-> other-> Minimum to increase the thickness of your black lines. If you want to go the wand then road once you have your selection, use Select-> change-> Expand.

• How to use the magic wand to select in the active artboard only - CS5

  I ran into a problem that I think already has a solution. I have a layout with 7 work plans, each a variation on a design logo. I want to choose a specific color, but only in the active work plan. The wand seems to be the right choice, but I see no way to specify this. All the efforts that I do, the color is selected in each work plan there. I know that select all can limit its scope to the active artboard by adding the option to the command key, but see no equivalent for the magic wand. Did I miss something or Illustrator lack the ability?

  Use blocking or hide to make a selection.

  1. Draw a box around the elements on an artbaord
  2. Select > Inverse
  3. Object > Lock
  4. (use your magic wand and that your changes)
  5. Object unlock everything

• Driving bad magic wand selection tool

  Help...  I had this problem almost every time that I use Photoshop CS5 and previously with CS4. (never a problem with CS or CS2). When you try to make selections based on the color or contrast with the 'magic wand' tool, I find that she develops totally erratic behavior.  Even set a tolerance of 1 or 3 (pen = 0), for example, could select supermarkets or any other tone.

  I end up doing my masks (selections), either manually, or using a combination of tools like the magnetic lasso.  It is causing lose me a lot of time.  If anyone has any idea, please let me know.

  My system is an otherwise robust processor 64-bit WIn 7, Xeon, 18 GB of Ram.

  Thanks in advance,

  Deepmehta.it is on the right track.

  Specifically to the difficulty of the question, select the Eyedropper tool, click on the image and change the sample Pointsetting.

• Magic wand selects the entire image

  Hey, I tried to use the magic wand tool to select an area before and it works. But yesterday idk what happened and whenever I used the magic tool want to select a specific area it maintains by selecting the entire image. How can I get this problem? Please answer as soon as possible. Thank you!

  Hi SepetMTJ22,

  I'll try to look at the suggestions of Charles. It is very likely that you have a full or empty layer selected, choose everything for you:

  

  

  Or you have a size of the sample that is too big, make sure that you have defined in a small enough sample point. One is recommended.

  

• "WARNING: no pixel selected" with the magic wand

  Details:

  Product: Adobe Photoshop CS5 64-bit

  OS: Windows 7 64-bit

  I'm working on the application of a coating that is textured to a field of hexagons, but not for their "Grout", i.e. the border thickness between each hexagonal "mosaic". I made a selection of the "Grout" and then reversed so that now my hexes were selected, make a new layer filled with black, and then using the magic wand tool, I deselected about 2/3 of the selections in Allen. Apply noise, motion blur, makes a fine metal grain. Invert the selection, remove the excess black, then reverse and save the selection. Define as overlay, super good. Then layer, load my selection of the Hexagon, 1/3 of the responsible for the selection of France that I've done before (so I do not apply two textures on any of a hexagon) and I get about 2/3 of the hexagons selected. New layer, fill it with black, just like the last time. Except that... when I use my magic wand to deselect, I get ' WARNING: No. Pixels were selected "and I lose the entire selection. Can I deselect using square or the quick selector, but not the magic wand. Now I well recorded and could recreate so no real work is lost, but it is easier deselect each Hexagon bit (there a LOT of them) with the magic wand of monstroustly. Why this suddenly is upward?

  Thank you for your time,

  Charles DiGiovanna

  How is the box to sample all layers [] at the top of the main window of Photoshop?

  If it is not checked, the wand will only use the data on the layer that is currently selected.

• How to move the selection from the magic wand of 2 pixels tool to take off the edges?

  Hello

  I am trying to make a selection with the magic wand tool and move the edges of the selection by a pixel or two, but the button "refine edge" does not seem to do anything.  I want to cut a pixel on the edge of an image that I cut into another image.  Any help would be great thanks.

  Depending on whether you have selected the image or the background, use Select > modify > expand your selection or select > modify > contract selection

• Cannot find the quick selection tool (previously associated with the magic wand tool) on Illustrator CC (the most recent version installed on October 14, 2014)

  I just installed a new version of Illustrator CC and CS6 on 14 October 2014 and I couldn't find the quick selection on this version tool, this tool already lies with the magic wand tool

  I don't remember a quick selection tool in Illustrator. Are you sure it was in Illustrator?

• Hide always selectable items with the magic wand tool

  When I want to cut a piece of an image, I create a mask on the layer of the image with paint on anything, but the point I want to keep. Something changed and I can choose is no longer this element remains in the layer after I applied the layer mask and painted essentially the everytyhing else.

  For example if I wanted an Apple carved into a tree, I've painted all in black except apple, which left white in the mask. After you apply the mask on the layer, I should be able to click in the empty space around the Apple with my magic wand tool and they have to make a perfect around apple selection, but the magic wand tool straightens always leaves, branches, etc. Even if I painted out them and apply the mask, is essentially delete them and all that I can see the gray and white checkerboard grid behind Apple. It makes me crazy!

  It's Photoshop CS6 and it was working fine before. Changed something without realizing it?

  Thank you...

  Maybe you painted the mask with a very dark black than gray. Apply this mask would leave the color in the pixels, but they are almost completely transparent. The magic wand would always detect the color in the pixels.

  Another possibility is that you have accidentally reduced the density of the mask slightly in the properties panel when the mask was targeted.

• Mask and the magic wand in the Select

  In Using Photoshop / select and mask Workspace for 2015.5 CC, it is said after the launch of Select and mask workspace allowing, "a selection tool such as the Lasso, magic wand, or quick selection. Now click on select and mask in the Options bar. "But when I run S & M, the magic wand is not available. Is it possible to add it?

  Martin

  If you mean the magic wand tool, no. There is only the regular lasso tool and the quick selection in the selection and the mask tool.

• where is the magic wand tool

  Hi guys

  All new to photoshop. I use photoshop cc and I can't find the magic wand tool, I spent my selection quick and clicked on the lower corner tool, but it does not appear.  I only get the quick selection tool.  I've seen several threads that show the magic wand tool from the drop-down list, but mine does not.  Ideas please > Heather

  

  It is nested with the Quick Selection tool. Don't just click on the bottom... Click and hold down.

  If it does not appear, right click here and the reset tool
