Hi, I am a new Affinity Photo user. I wanted to know if there is a way to switch the Free Hand Selection Tool (Marquee Tool) on the fly. Meaning, I currently have it set to Magnetic but want to switch it to Polygon while I am still selecting inside my canvas.

Welcome to the forums,

I am frequently corrected but in this case I am unaware of any method, there are no keyboard shortcuts available for them.

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

If you start your selection in Polygon mode you can press Shift to activate magnetic mode,

release Shift to go back to Polygon mode

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.
