justinm_ Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Why is it so hard to find the threshold option for the selection tool on designer? I have looked everywhere and i can't find it anywhere i want to lower the threshold when selecting with the draw selection brush like you could on drawplus but the little threshold bar that used to be there has gone? it only gives you the option to change the brush width and add or subtract?

Pšenda Posted April 26, 2019 Share Posted April 26, 2019 Selection Brush in ADe makes a selection based on the shape, not on background color, as with Flood Select Tool in APh, or Select Sampled Colour in ADe. https://affinity.help/designer/English.lproj/pages/Selections/selections_sampled.html Quote Affinity Store (MSI/EXE): Affinity Suite (ADe, APh, APu) 2.4.0.2301 Dell OptiPlex 7060, i5-8500 3.00 GHz, 16 GB, Intel UHD Graphics 630, Dell P2417H 1920 x 1080, Windows 11 Pro, Version 23H2, Build 22631.3155.

That article is talking about Select Sampled Color, in the Pixel Persona in Designer. That is the only selection method (in Designer) that has a threshold, and if you use it it will be obvious where to specify the threshold, as it's in the dialog that opens. It sounds like you're looking for a function that is only in Photo if you're trying to use a selection tool with tolerance/threshold. That is only in the Flood Select tool (magic wand), in Photo.
