NicholasG Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I created a design AD. I switched to the pixel persona and made a selection of one of the complicated shapes and that gave me the normal "marching ants" selection of the shape.I went back to the designer persona andI created a new blank layer and hid the rest of the layers. Now, with this "marching ants" selection on the new layer I want to covert it to a 2px black stoke. Is there a way of doing this? When I used to use Illustrator, I was able to "Stroke Selection" but I can't seem to find anything that in AD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 You can use, in the Pixel Persona, Select > Outline, and then you can use the Flood Fill Tool to fil the outlined selection with the color you want, if you want a pixel outline around something. But you cannot stroke a selection.

PixelPest Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Sounds like a case for the Contour tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deetz Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Hey, sorry to be slow. I'm also trying to use the flood selection tool. I'm trying to outline retinal lesions for a research project using the flood selection tool and a threshold of 5. Is there a way to convert this flood selection outline to some sort of visible colour outline? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
