Select and deselect areas using commands

  1. Do any of the following:
    • To select all pixels in a layer, select the layer in the Layers palette and choose Select > All.

    • To deselect selections, choose Select > Deselect. This is the safest way to deselect the area.

    • To reselect the most recent selection, choose Select > Reselect.

  2. To show or hide selection borders, choose View > Selection.
    Note: You can also deselect by clicking anywhere in the photo outside the selected area. However, you might accidentally make further selections if you’re using a selection tool that selects based on clicking, such as the Magic Wand tool.
