1. Rectangular Marquee Tool

The Marquee tool is the most basic of selection tools and often the one most useful.
This tool is used to draw selections based on geometric shapes. Specifically,
the marquee tool allows you to draw rectangular and elliptical selections.

2. Elliptical Marquee Tool

Click and hold on the Elliptical Marquee Tool, then select the Rectangular Marquee Tool
from the fly-out menu.

3. Lasso Tool
Polygonal Lasso Tool. Similar to the lasso tool, except that instead of holding your
mouse button down to draw, left-click on various points to create a selection with a
series of straight edges. You can also hold down the Alt key (Windows) or Option key
(Mac OS) to draw freehand sections.You can also hold down the Alt key (Windows)
or Option key (Mac OS) to draw freehand sections.

4. Polygonal Lasso Tool

Polygonal Lasso Tool. Similar to the lasso tool, except that instead of holding your
mouse button down to draw, left-click on various points to create a selection with a
series of straight edges. You can also hold down the Alt key (Windows) or Option key
(Mac OS) to draw freehand sections.

5. Magnetic Lasso Tool

Periodically, the Magnetic Lasso tool adds fastening points to the selection
border to anchor previous segments. If the border doesn't snap to the

desired edge, click once to add a fastening point manually. Continue to

trace the edge, and add fastening points as needed.

6. Magic Wand Tool

The Magic Wand Tool, known simply as the Magic Wand, is one of the
oldest selection tools in Photoshop. Unlike other selection tools that select
pixels in an image based on shapes or by detecting object edges, the
Magic Wand selects pixels based on tone and colour.

7. Crop Tool
The Crop Tool cuts out a defined area deleting or hiding the rest of an
image: In the Toolbox, select the Crop Tool, click on the image and draw a

rectangle holding mouse's button pressed. When you release the button a
bounding box appears. You can move, resize and rotate it.

8. Healing Brush Tool

The Healing Brush is an intelligent paint brush that is similar to the Clone
Stamp tool only in terms that you sample from one image area by option (Mac)/alt
(PC) clicking on a source area and then paint to cover up blemishes, wrinkles,
scratches, or image damage.

9. Spot Healing Brush Tool

The spot healing brush is the default healing tool in Photoshop and can be used to clone areas from an
image and blend the pixels from the sampled area seamlessly with the target area. The basic principle is
that the texture from the sample area is blended with the color and luminosity surrounding wherever you
paint. The main difference between this and the standard healing brush is that the spot healing brush

requires no source point. You simply click on the blemishes you want to get rid of (or drag with the tool
to paint over the larger areas you wish to repair) and the spot healing brush works out the rest for you.

10.

Patch Tool

The patch tool is another Photoshop repair tool that combines the selection
behaviour of the Lasso tool with the colour blending properties of the healing
brush tool.

11.

Red Eye Tool

Red eye in portraits is caused when the flash source is used too close to the lens axis and the pupils of
the eye are wide open. One way to avoid this happening is to set your camera flash to red eye mode (if
available). The camera will usually pop a single or short series of flashes just before firing the main
camera flash exposure. Failing that, the red eye tool in Photoshop is an easy-to-use tool for removing
red eye from photographs that have been taken with a direct flash source.

12.

Clone Stamp Tool

The clone stamp tool is probably the most tedious tool in Photoshop, but at the same
time may be one of the most. important tools. When restoring old photos it is
indispensable. It is used for copying (or cloning) one part of a. picture to another.

13.
Tool

Background Eraser

The eraser is basically a brush which erases pixels as you drag it across the image. Pixels are
erased to transparency, or the background colour if the layer is locked.

14.

Magic Eraser Tool

As the name says Magic Erase Tool can do some magic! When you click
with the Magic Erase tool on a particular pixel, similar pixels will be erased
(like magic wand selects similar color). You can click on different shades to
erase parts of a picture. Magic Erase may be defined as a color based
Eraser.

15.
Color Replacement Tool
You can change or replace a selected colour with a new colour.

16.

Blur Tool

The Blur Tool is used to paint a blur effect. Each stroke made using the Blur
Tool will lower the contrast between affected pixels, making them appear
blurred.

17.

Sharpen Tool

Sharpening is the process of creating or refining a sharp edge of appropriate shape on a

tool or implement designed for cutting. Sharpening is done by grinding away material on
the implement with an abrasive substance harder than the material of the implement,
followed sometimes by processes to polish the sharp surface to increase smoothness
and to correct small mechanical deformations without regrinding.

18.

Burn Tool

Dodging and burning are terms used in photography for a technique used during the
printing process to manipulate the exposure of a selected area(s) on a photographic
print, deviating from the rest of the image's exposure.

19.

Sponge Tool

The Sponge tool is a retouching tool used to alter the saturation of a

portion of an image. It is reminiscent of the sponges used by watercolor
artists to soften (or even remove) a color that has already been lain on the
canvas.

20.

Pen Tool

The pen tool is a path creator. You can create smooth paths that you can
stroke with a brush or turn to a selection. This tool is effective for
designing, selecting smooth surfaces, or layout. The paths can also be
used in Adobe illustrator when the document is edited in Adobe illustrator.
The paths themselves are not raster based (they don't depend on pixels.)
