    I started learning Photoshop about ten years ago and for 2-3 years i initially kept avoiding the pen tool, because it seemed so intimidating. But doing a photomanipulation took at least one week, because i was doing all my selections with the brush tool :)) after learning the pen tool completing a photomanipulation changed from one week to one day... the pen tool is amazing!

    Aaron. When I see the titles I go "Oh I know that" but I click anyway cuz there is always that one extra thing I didn't know and that's why I learn with each video Phlearn post. Dude, I owe my photoshop journey to you. People are amazed by my skills in editing and I always say I got that from a channel called Phlearn. Thank you guys.

    Thank you so much for this tutorial. I learned how to "continue" my lines, which is exactly why I watched it. I also learned that you can move your line from any point along its path; you don't have to drag a point to move it. So it was a good investment of my 15 minutes!

    3:40 - is there a way to keep the point angles locked while dragging the curve? I want to be able to drag the curve between the points without affecting the curves on the other sides of the points (notice how dragging the curve changes the other curves as well)

    I have been trying to figure out how to do just what you demonstrated. I had a 5 images in a focus stack, auto aligned and merged images that did not quite line up and gave me double vision on my main subject. These were flowers that got blown around in the wind. I wanted to composite the images together by hand. I think the technique you demonstrated will by just what I need.

    The curvature pen tool makes the selection process a lot more easier?
    And also I have found that having feather at 0 makes for really sharp edges.
    Thanks for the video.. as usual was simple and top notch.

    Notizen:
    1:25 -> einen guten Punkt zum starten wählen
    5:23 -> am Ende der Rundung den Punkt setzen
    6:29 -> alt auf schon vorher gesetzte Punkte drücken lässt die Kurven der Punkte verschwinden oder es lassen sich neue Kurven durch alt und ziehen erstellen (7:19)
    9:52 -> Pfad wieder bearbeiten: Pfadauswahl werkzeug und dann auf den pfad drücken
    10:40 -> Pfad weiter bearbeiten/fortsetzen: auf den letzten ankerpunkt drücken wenn der Stern neben dem Stift zu einem "Rechteck" wird und dann neue setzen
    11:44 -> Punkte löschen mit alt

    It took me a while to pick up the pen tool back when I was new to photoshop but once you master it, it really transforms the way you work! I find if I need to correct a very specific area it's the best way to make an accurate selection of the bits you need to work on. Wish I'd had this tutorial 11 years ago! lol

    • @phlearn
      @phlearn  8 месяцев назад

      Hey there! Yes, there are several shortcut keys for making selections in Photoshop, depending on the type of selection you want to create:
      Marquee Tools: The shortcut key to activate any of the Marquee tools is M. Once activated, you can click and drag to create your selection.
      Magic Wand Tool: The shortcut key for the Magic Wand tool is W. This tool is useful for selecting areas of similar color.
      Lasso Tool: The shortcut key for the Lasso tool is L. This tool allows you to freehand draw your selection around an object.
      We hope that helps!
