madrera Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I am new to Affinity Photo and have a problem with the magnetic lasso. The tool finds the outlines quite well and selects the cutting points automatically. Sometimes the points are not correct and the hint to hold left button and draw wrong points to the correct line doesn't work for me, as the tool sets new points then and the whole thing gets messed up. 1. How can I correct these wrong points? 2. How can I stop the Tool to set points automatically? 3. Is it possible to delete the last point only? Thank you in advance!

Uncle Mez Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Nice topic ! I also found the magnetic selection tool to not work as expected and it seems the tool decides what is good to be selected even if i force it to select what i wanted. Well i skipped the report and switched to polygonal selection tool that does a better work and you can refine the sharp corner by using the smooth selection in the Selection menu and just increase percentage/pixels and you will get something much better. But Magnetic should become more intelligent and ore usable, far more then what we actually have. Blessings !
