It highlights the selected are with the same tint that the Select Brush uses. Effectively, how this tool works, you click on an area, and it automatically selects all the pixels with the same or similar pigment and opacity as to the one originally selected. It’s another tool that I don’t use all that much, because I can’t seem to find a use for it. Fairly similar to how it works in other programs. So, this tool works very similar to the way it does with other tools, but a bit differently as well, but first, a picture of it~ Another.tool that’s in various programs…yeah.

Also, after selecting an area with this tool, a second click will erase the previous selection, for a newer selection, this same effect happens if you select with this tool, then switch too Marquee, and select with that. If you make some sort of crazy selection, like making the selection loop within itself, then SAI will correct it with the closest selection shape that it can create given the general shape you made, so it will cut out some of the areas you would have originally had inside the selection, but get cut out likely because they were in a loop. If you let go without connecting the edges of the line for the selection, then SAI will complete it by connecting those two points with a completely straight line. I…I’m pretty sure this works the same as it does in other programs….though it’s been awhile since I’ve used the lasso tool in any other program, I’ve never really found a need to use it in any program.Īll you do with it is click and drag, and draw the selection area for what you want to select. I also apologize for last week’s late update, it seems the queu didn’t upload the post at the time I had set it for. With that said, the first tool is the Lasso Selectoin tool.

Alright, I’m going to do two tools at once this time around, because there’s nothing at all to the first tool.
