I have tried to use the quick selection tool to select areas of a photo in an adjustment layer but it does not seem to make them available to the adjustment. The selection occurs on the photo but not in the adjustment layer box, as the selection brush does. I find that the selection brush is rather hard to use as you can not see exactly what you are selecting as it indicates only on the layer box not on the photo itself.
I am sure there is a better way to do this but I can’t find it.
Can someone give me a hint or clue, please?
It sure would be handy to be able to use the quick selection tool, or one of the other selection tools to isolate parts of images for either extra work, or to keep separate from work on the rest of the image.
I know I am misunderstanding something in Barbara’s instructions in Elements 8 page 129+.
