Painter 6´s Magic Wand

[eliseu gouveia]

Heya, folks,

just started doodling around in Painter 6 to escape Photoshop 5.5´s plastic look and I was toying around with the Magic Wand tool when I noticed I can´t make multiple selections; I wanna click on a face and its hands and I can only select one region at a time.
Urrgh!

Shift+click, ctrl+click, alt+click, ALL those add/subtract combos that work so well in Photoshop (and Painter 6´s lasso tool) seem to have taken a vacation.

Can you help me out?

Purty please?
:)

It should be shift+click. I just opened up my copy and gave it a try and got the same results as you. It appears to be a bug. As they're up to version 8 now there's not much chance of them going back and fixing it. Sorry but at least you know it's not just you.

Thanks, Robin.

This sure is a bummer, and not a good beginning for someone who was really looking forward to experimenting a little with Painter
