Selection Control Point

Click here to choose the Selection Control Point tool. It enables you to click on an area and selectively adjust properties such as colour or tone.

Overlays

You can see precisely which areas a Control Point is altering by using Overlays and Masks. Here we’ve hidden the overlays so we can see effect of the tool’s tonal adjustment on the image instead.

Pick a colour

When applying the Colorize command to a Selection Control Point, click here to choose a colour from the Color Picker. You can change the blending mode to alter the way the colour mixes with the image.

Controls

Click and drag on the top control handle to increase or decrease the size of the currently active Selection Control Point. The lower slider adjusts the tool’s Opacity, affecting how much your image is overlaid.
