I still don't see why the wand tool couldn't go alongside the selection brush tool as they do very similar jobs. The only argument I could see valid for that would be to minimise the number of tools or buttons on people's screen to keep it less cluttered, but that's why I have said it would be ideal to make it optional.

Thanks for the welcome. I just thought as Designer has a pixel persona and a 'selection brush tool', it wouldn't be unreasonable to also have the magic wand as an option, even if not as part of the default toolbox.

I'm looking at alternatives to Photoshop as it's very expensive and have enjoyed using Designer during the trial period, but have realised how often I used to use the 'magic wand' tool or the 'flood select' tool and am getting frustrated trying to select particular objects as it isn't available in Affinity Designer. Even if it wasn't in the default toolbox and you had to add it for yourself, I think it would be a good idea to put it there for anyone else who may need it as I'm sure I'm not the only one.
