Problem with quick mask selection tool
Hi there,

I have a problem with quick mask selection tool in CS3. When I select something using a selection tool like lasso and then press the Q key to enter to quick mask mode, the selected parts remains in its original color, but the unselected parts of image turns to red. I want to know how to make it reverse so that the selected parts become red and the unselected parts remain in its original color.

Thanking you,

Simply by using the shortcut for Invertwhich is Ctrl+I (Cmd+I on the Mac). You could have also inverted the selection before pressing Q but the first way is simplier.

Double-click on the Quickmask icon and you can choose whether the colour indicates masked or selected area
