Use the Magic Wand tool to select specific sections of your Fresco artwork quickly.
Like in Photoshop and Illustrator, the Magic Wand tool is one of Fresco's handy selection tools. It helps you automatically select areas that are similar in tone and color.
For example, the Magic Wand tool helps you isolate and edit specific objects like the pink flowers from the other objects in the image below.
Read on to learn how to use the Magic Wand tool to achieve your desired design outcome.
What can you select with the Magic Wand tool
You can select both pixel and vector layers with the Magic Wand tool.
If you work on artwork with both vector and pixel layers, your selection will not appear on the vector layer. However, if you make a Magic Wand selection on a vector layer, you will be able to view your selection on the pixel layer.
How do you use the Magic Wand tool
To modify specific sections of your artwork with the Magic Wand tool, follow these steps:
Note:
You can also change the color of disconnected areas in your artwork with the new Contiguous control in Magic Wand settings.
