With this tool you can freely select areas. When you use the shortcut L the first time, you select the Basic Lasso Tool. The Lasso Tool is used for selecting a free area of your image (not a geometrical shape). If what you need is a perfect circle, select the Elliptical Marquee Tool and hold down the shift key while dragging your selection. You can then select your desired area in the image.
Press Shift+M to change between this one and the Elliptical shape. Use the shortcut M to access the Rectangular Marquee Tool. The Marquee tool is used to select areas of an image with a certain shape. Just make sure that you have previously selected the layer you want to create the copy from. To do so, press Ctrl+J (Windows) or Cmd+J (Mac).
You can create copies of any layer you need, not just the background one. You can always delete this layer and your image remains intact. This will allow you to work on this copy and not directly in the image. When you open your image to edit it in Photoshop it is highly recommended that you create a copy of your background layer (aka your image). If you use default settings, your new layer will be a blank transparent one. You also have options such as opacity, color or blending mode. You can create a new layer with the shortcut Shift+Ctrl+N (Window) or Shift+Cmd+N (Mac).Ī dialog panel will appear where you can rename the new layer. If there is something that characterizes Photoshop is its workflow based in layers.
