Which type of selection tool is the magic wand tool?

The Magic Wand is a tool that selects areas of an image based on color similarity. It is useful for selecting sharp edges and is enjoyable for beginners. However, as users use it more, they may become frustrated with the difficulty of selecting exactly what they want. The Path and Color Select tools are more efficient, and the Wand is less useful for contour selections and imperfect selections. It is also effective for solid-colored background areas.

The selected area expands outward from the center and can jump over small gaps, depending on the Threshold option. To increase or decrease Threshold, users can drag the pointer downward or upward after the first button-press. This tool is often more efficient for more experienced users.

  • Procreate has been nothing but a chain of frustrations since day one, lack of tools, lack of basic anything, lack of advanced selection or pen smoothing on selection and the worst of all, lack of a blur tool, its just a overadvertised headache. For 20€ its great but with a huge list of disfuncionality it just makes me question those 20€. Thank you for sharing your the vid. 🙂

  • Thank you so muchh for the tutorial, it has been suck for me getting used to procreate (im newbie for procreate) when im fully used to clip studio paint with bunch of useful features.. may I asked if it is possible to pick color from what’s on the current layer,, for example, I have skin color on layer 1 and its shading color as multiply mode layer on layer 2,, in csp, I have options as I can pick the shading color on the layer 2 only or the blended (displayed) color from those 2 layers, while in procreate I can only pick displayed color… I wish I have that first option on procreate as well buhuhuh thank u again!

  • I’m not sure this is what I’m looking for as I’m new to procreate. I just started using it a few days ago. I made a drawing and used it as a reference, with the intention of painting on a separate layer, then deleting the outlines (reference layer). Of course, I ended up painting on the same layer as the drawing. I mean, of course. now if this was photoshop, I’d just copy the layer, select the black drawing lines with a wand on one layer, and delete everything in the same colour. Please can you suggest how I could do this in procreate?

  • Believing zodiac is “shirk”, you can’t believe stars determine fate, Allah SWT the only God, determines all luck and bad luck. All celestial bodies are just unliving objects, rotating and doesn’t care about you. God created the laws of universe. Why whole universe spin just to make you sleep at night? the dense earth knows no sleepy human, sleepy human does not make the earth turn the sun into night. all because God created human. Praise be to Allah the lord of this world. Allah SWT is not willing with any shirk. Shirk is cautious. Many kind and small. If you die in a state of shirk, you will be in hell forever. ‘Shirk’ not a sin, shirk is a way of associating partners (not figuring God almighty) the only God, to be worshiped, hoped for, fate, worship, prayer, and reasons for deeds (rewards – sins). Then the claim of creator of the world, as the nature of the most almighty, and the nature of the most praiseworthy. Then those reasons make many kind of shirk. Like drawing animate creatures (rivalling God in creating living creation), may we be safe from all polytheism/shirk, then repent from sins (some sins are bleached in hell first) but after giving creed, converting to Islam, it is important to worship God, fulfill the (iman)believing pillars, and islam pillars. May our life not be missed, may our life fulfill it all. We hopefull we dont end up in the hereafter with not enough. Trying to find, study, do good deeds for a safe afterlife. May we always ask Him for guidance, take refuge in Him from going astray, and ask Him for forgiveness from all our mistakes.
