Using elliptical marquee tool hits

How to make several shots with marquee tool without starting a new form.  When I pick up the pointer and move to a different location on the ellipse, it opens a new ellipse. I want to continue with the same ellipse that I started.  There must be some keys I can hold down which allows me to do.  Also, where can I find a list of the main features in the future.

Hello!

  • I lost the marquee tool cursor control

    Running PSE9 under MAC OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.

    I was setting in flag of borders of several pictures using the marquee tool > select > feather > inverse selection > remove and it works well.  Then I started another picture and the marquee selection tool now won't give me a rectangle of varying size, but rather a little square that moves, but will not change its size (unlike the option shift which, if I understand correctly, lock in a square shape, but allows a change of size).  I have to hit keys wrong somehow, but what?  And how to return to normal operation?  Attached picture shows the small square in the upper left corner of my image.

    Oh yes, Happy New Year!

    When you have selected move - not the marquee tool tool, you have "Auto select" selected? This will cause the same behavior when you press the CTRL key when you use the marquee selection tool: he chooses the top layer of the majority to pass.

  • Editing audio first in Audition, when the marquee tool, the changes do not take effect or I would like to export.

    Editing audio first in Audition, when you use the marquee tool to get rid of unwanted 'knocking' noise audio, the changes do not take effect or I would export after changes in the spectral display.

    No indication on how to save the changes to the marquee selection tool would be great.

    Hmm.  You did something for the audio in the selection?  It looks not to the file has been modified at all, and the registration option is not enabled, unless a change has occurred.  I suppose you try to remove or reduce the volume of the sound inside the selection rectangle, is that correct?  With this selection, you can press DELETE to remove it completely, or set the volume floating just above the selection of lower button.

    It also seems that you stopped reading, and while that save the selection under will be activated pause, of many other commands will not.

    So, try in the following order:

    1 stop playback.  Is File > Save now activated?

    2. otherwise, do some edit to this file.  You will know that the file is considered 'dirty' when an asterisk * appears next to the name of the file in the files Panel and the top of the editor Panel.

    3. There is no number 3.  I feel confident, one of the first two options will work.  Once the file is saved and overwritten, go back to the first and you should hear the content updated the.

  • The height adjustment of product with the marquee tool. How?

    When I use the marquee tool to draw a shape - square/circle etc. I sometimes don't get the size exactly to my needs. is there a way to fine-tune the size of the product? I guess that there is a key combination that will allow me to make fine adjustments upwards or downwards for the size of the shape. Does anyone know how to do this without closing and starting again and again until I get what I ask?

    Hello.

    In the toolbar, you can set a specific size in pixels or whatever.

    Or, you can do a right click on the selection and choose transform selection.

  • Various measures between the ruler tool and marquee tool?

    I use Photoshop CS 5 Extended

    Why are there two different measures?

    I positioned guides on the image for purposes of measurement.  I have the snap-to Guides on. I used the ruler tool snap a guide and I extended a straight line to the other guide (the SHIFT key down). The ruler tool read 712 pixels.

    Then I used the marquee tool to align the guides and it read x 720 pixels.

    What you believe?

    Where?  In the Info Panel?  If Yes, have you read the W (width) and not the X (horizontal pixel position)?

    I just did what you said and got consistent measures.

  • How to create a 2nd selection using the elliptical selection tool

    I try to create the outer edges darker IRIS with the elliptical selection tool. I am trying to elect the iris and then create another selection of the iris 2nd with the elliptical selection tool. This does not work for some reason any. I work from the examples and exercises in the book "Portrait Professional retouching TECHNIQUES for photographers using Photoshop" by Scott Kelby. But for some reason, the tool does not work and I'm going through the procedure of Scott Kelby said to do.

This allows you to create another selection on the 2nd Iris. This is the part that is not work - the creation of the second selection on the 2nd Iris.  can someone help me with this problem?

  • Can I turn off the setting that displays the height and width in a small black box when you use the marquee selection tool?

    In Photoshop CC on a mac...

    When you use the marquee selection tool, a little black box appears next to the cursor and displays in real time, the height and the width of the selection.  The same annoying box also appears when you drag an item with the tool move, displaying the numeric position of the cursor.  Is there anyway to disable the display of this little black box?  It makes me crazy.

    In cmd/ctrl-k preferences click "Interface". At the bottom of the interface user is a drop down menu to see the transformation. The value as 'never '.

  • It rounded corners why when I use marquee tool?

    I use Photoshop 7.0, but hope someone can help me, even if it is old.

    I frequently use the marquee selection tool. It is always used to have straight corners, but last week, he started to automatically of rounded corners. I have not modified parameters. Why does this happen?

    I mention that I'm using InDesign CS2. I've worked with rectangles with rounded corners it recently, but each time changed the corners manually. After a few weeks, but the program began to automatically change each rectangle with rounded corners. I didn't know how to change it, but after a few weeks he returned to corners automatically.

    I use Windows Vista. Initially, he had some problems to go with Photoshop and InDesign, but now it works fine most of the time.

  • The elliptical selection tool is not on my PES 11

    I'm following a tutorial using PES 11 layers. The presenter selects the elliptical selection tool to edit cuts. I don't see the elliptical selection tool in my PES 11?

    Thank you

    Click on the rectangle (dotted rectangle) and you will see the elliptical marquee in the tool at the bottom of the PSE window options.

  • PSE7, creation of thumbnail, which is Oval Marquee tool?

    . I've used PSE3 for photo edting.  I now PSE7. I am creating a "classic vignette effect" as described in the book of PSE3 Kelby, pg 300-301.

    This effect is intended to highlight the baby inside an oval with edges rounded and blur everything behind the main subject.   By clicking on the Rectangle selection tool, I find no circle or oval tools, just the squares and rectangles. I need a tool to draw an oval space around my baby's face.  Under the framing box icon there are squares and triangles, no circle or oval. You can direct me further in this technique using simple instructions?  I appreciate your answers!

    Are you sure that you have the marquee selection tool and not the shape tool? The marquee is way up in the Toolbox with the shape tool. It's the dotted rectangle bit and when you click on it, if you hold down the mouse, or if you right-click, you will get the option for the elliptical marquee.

  • Pan using the text tool

    Just seen elsewhere asked on another forum

    Is it possible for a panoramic image using the text tool, I know you can use the Alt key in Illustrator, but it doesn't seem to be an option in Photoshop.

    Hello

    On a Mac, while the cursor is in a text box, you will need to hit: Shift + Option + command + SPACEBAR.

    Who holds the key 4. I guess you can map it in Photoshop keyboard shortcode preferences.

  • Elliptical selection tool - "no attention WARNING: no pixels are selected to more than 50 percent." The edges of the selection will be not visible.

    I am convinced that it is a bug in Photoshop CC 2014. I am on Windows 7, 64-bit. The 2014.2.2 version, and the version is 2014.204.r.310 x 64. If I select a zone by using the Rectangle tool, the area is described as usual. However, if I use the elliptical selection tool and select the same area, I get the warning. Even if I fill the region using the paint bucket, I always get error if I try to select using the elliptical framing box. Is always successful with the rectangle. I've seen other users re issues. the lasso tool with the same behavior and warning. The usual answer has been put at the edge of the feather to 0. However, it is by default (on my system) to 0.0. Using the selector to improve the contour and by replacing the value 0 (or any other value) makes no difference and in fact after this and clicking OK, the warning screens.

    Is this a bug with the elliptical selection tool? I've updated Photoshop just before submitting this question, and the behavior is unchanged.

    Hi irwin,

    There are different possibilities to solve this situation. Try one of the following options;

    • Decrease the radius of softening of the selection tools,
    • Increase the size of the selection
    • Increase the size of the image (this may decrease the quality of your image),.
    • Ignore the warning message and keep going to work on your file (remember that your selection is still there).
    • Also, make sure that you selected and the targeting of the correct layer.

    You may prefer to set the feather to zero in on the selection tools and use the pen (Ctrl + Alt + D) command for each specific selection. Using the feather command does not change the parameter of smoothing (zero value) on selection tool, so you don't need to wory on previous selections feather RADIUS.

    Let us know if that helps.

    Kind regards

  • PS Elements 13 - do not select marquee tool

    Have recently updated to 13 PSE and don't know if I used the marquee from the upgrade tool.  Any effort to select with the marquee tool cause no selection.  It's almost as if the tool does not know the left mouse button is pressed (have tested the left button of the mouse with several other applications, no problems and works of left button of the mouse to other PES functions).  Also tested to ensure that it is not a case of drawing selection lines simply do not - I have try a selection then copy/paste and I always get a dough in the center of the layer.  Tried to reset and reboot PSE without change preferences.

    Hoping someone has seen this before and has any suggestions on what I can try.

    Thank you

    Try to reset the tool. There should be a box with lines on this subject on the options bar of the tool on the right. Click on this to reset.
