VectorCat Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I'm trying to isolate a shape from the background and the selection brush tool does OK until it suddenly selects the entire image! If I can see the change in tonality of one shape over another, why can't Affinity "see" it, too? Same with the flood selection tool. It's almost like these tools are blind in a manner of speaking, but both the software and my aging eyeballs are both seeing whatever the video card throws to the monitor. Is there some level of selectivity besides "all or nothing?" thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstdefence Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 With the Flood selection tool, select add mode then try left-click and hold and drag down slowly until it starts to select things you don't want, then pull back slightly, then do the same again in the area you want to select until all of the area is selected. Upload a screenshot or the original image to give us an idea what you're trying to select.
