Polygonal Select Area Creates a select area in a raster image by drawing a polygon around pixels that you define.

A select area is a user-defined area of individual pixels or groups of pixels within an image. You can create a select area for editing purposes.

Following the first point, click the points to define the polygon. Points are placed when you release the mouse button. To remove a point or back up, press the Backspace key. Right-click to end the polygon. The solid select area outline then becomes a dotted outline.

As you create a select area with the Polygonal Select Area command, you can use the following modifier keys to change the behavior of your selection:

Keyboard Modifier

The Shift key is not a valid modifier for the Polygonal Select Area command.
