Hi,

I quite often use the Extract tool in PS (CS). I may overlook something but after I have drawn my outline, used the fill option and I select preview I can’t seem to find a way to go back to the drawing part without resetting all my work in the Extract tool and I have to start allover again. Is there a way to continue drawing/erasing bits I want to change ?

Must be a simple solution I bet, I just missed it probably. TIA

Look at the bottom right side of the dialogue box, there are options to show highlight and show fill, and to show original or extracted. I think that this is what you need.

Yes, that’s it! Plus the pulldown with Original selected. Thank you Geoff. How I missed that….
