DiamondDave Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Hello all, I am new to Affinity Photo and to this forum. I recently encountered an issue using the free hand selection tool and I am not sure if it's working. When I select the lasso icon and make my selection, normally I would see are the "chasing ants" around my selection. However, I don't see them this time. I am not sure if I inadvertently changed some settings and not know it. I am hoping more advanced users have encountered this and can educate me on what to do. By the way, I do have show pixel selection checked under the view pull down. Any insight would be appreciated - Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Toltec. That was my problem. I had my feather at 683px. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
