### 7.6.9 Color/Select Colors

This function selects the area occupied by one or more given colors. For example it is possible to select all red tones.

In the preview you can see the currently selected area.

Tolerance controls, how generous PhotoLine is, when selecting.

You can choose a color with the color picker. The color picker "+" adds another color to the selection, the color picker "-" removes a color.

There are three options, what should be done with the selection:

- You can create a new image.
- You can create a lasso/mask.
- You can create an alpha channel (transparency).

Selecting Smooth Selection creates more than 2 values (black and white) in the destination depending on the similarity to the selected color.

If the destination is Alpha, turning on All Layers applies the current settings to all image layers of the active group.
