Choosing tool options

After choosing a Marquee tool, a Lasso tool, or the Magic Wand tool, the tool Options panel displays options that are specific to the chosen tool.

Edge options are available for all pixel selection tools:

Hard creates a marquee selection with a defined edge.
Anti-alias prevents jagged edges in the marquee selection.
Feather lets you feather the edge of the pixels you select.

Style options are available for the Marquee tools only:

Normal lets you create a marquee in which the height and width are independent.
Fixed Ratio constrains the height and width to defined ratios.
Fixed Size constrains the height and width to a set dimension.
