How can I make color selection smooth as if I drew it with the pen tool?


Recommended Posts

This has to do with the difference between pixels and vectors. In short you cannot select half of a pixel.

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.

When doing selections the key is antialiasing. Selection brush seems to create not very well antialiased selections.

If you make selection from layers palette (cmd-click layer) it should be smooth, but it works only if you can select whole object content of the layer.
