1. LASSO TOOL
This is a freehand selection tool. Click and hold your left mouse button on the image and draw your
selection
2. POLYGONAT LASSO TOOL

Similar to the lasso tool, except that instead of holding your mouse button down to draw, left-click on
various points to create a selection with a series of straight edges.You can also hold down the Alt key
(Windows) or Option key (Mac OS) to draw freehand sections.
3.CROP TOOL
Crop tool is used to cut the selective portions of an image. In older versions of Photoshop up to CS5,
there were only three options available in the crop tool menu- Crop , Slice & Slice select tool but From
Photoshop CS6 onwards there is a forth option added to the menu i.e. Perspective Crop Tool
4.HEALING BRUSH TOOL

The spot healing brush is the default healing tool in Photoshop and can be used to clone areas from an
image and blend the pixels from the sampled area seamlessly with the target area. The basic principle is
that the texture from the sample area is blended with the color and luminosity surrounding wherever you
paint
5.SPOT HEALING BRUSH TOOL

The spot healing brush is the default healing tool in Photoshop and can be used to clone areas from an
image and blend the pixels from the sampled area seamlessly with the target area. The basic principle is
that the texture from the sample area is blended with the color and luminosity surrounding wherever you
paint. The main difference between this and the standard healing brush is that the spot healing brush
requires no source point. You simply click on the blemishes you want to get rid of (or drag with the tool
to paint over the larger areas you wish to repair) and the spot healing brush works out the rest for you. It
is in many ways a lot easier to use than the standard healing brush and extremely effective at removing
most blemishes and marks. To see examples of the healing brush and the patch tool in action, check out
some of the repairing and retouching tutorials shown in Chapter 8.
6.PATCH TOOL
The patch tool uses the same complex algorithm as the healing brush to carry out its blend calculations,
but the patch tool works with selection-defined areas instead of a brush. When the patch tool is selected, it
initially operates in a lasso selection mode that can be used to define the area to patch from or patch to.
For example, you can hold down the Option/Alt key to temporarily convert the patch tool to become a
polygonal lasso tool with which to draw straight line selection edges. However, you dont actually need
the patch tool to define the selection, because any selection tool or selection method can be used to
prepare a patch selection. Once you have made a selection, select the patch tool to proceed to the next
stage.
The patch tool Options bar is shown below in Figure 1. As with the healing brushes, the patch tool has to
work with either the Background layer or a copied pixel layer. One of the nice features of the patch tool is
the way that the Selection area in Source and Destination mode will preview the image as you drag to
define the patch selection. To see examples of the healing brush and the patch tool in action, check out
some of the repairing and retouching tutorials shown in Chapter 8.
7. CLONE STAMP TOOL

The Clone Stamp tool is used for pixel-to-pixel cloning in Adobe Photoshop Creative Suite 5. The Clone
Stamp tool is different from the Healing Brush tool in that it does no automatic blending into the target
area. You can use the Clone Stamp tool for removing a product name from an image, replacing a
telephone wire thats crossing in front of a building, or duplicating an item.
8. BACKGROUND ERASER TOOL

Photoshop's eraser tool can be found in the second group of icons in the toolbox. It has three
variations: Eraser, Background Eraser and Magic Eraser. The eraser is basically a brush which erases
pixels as you drag it across the image. Pixels are erased to transparency, or the background colour if the
layer is locked
9. MAGIC ERASER TOOL

Photoshop's eraser tool can be found in the second group of icons in the toolbox. It has three
variations: Eraser, Background Eraser and Magic Eraser. The eraser is basically a brush
which erases pixels as you drag it across the image. Pixels are erased to transparency, or
the background colour if the layer is locked.
10. BLUR TOOL

The Blur Tool does what it says on the tin - it blurs out sections of your photo or artwork. For all of these
tools you will need to select a brush that is appropriate for the job you are going to do. You can manage
the strength of the blur with the strength option.
