Hi there

I have a user who is having a weird problems in PSCS2. She makes a closed path around an area that she wants, using her pen tool. She creates a new transparent layer, then goes to the Paths palette and clicks on the button to turn the path into a selection. So far so good, but instead of making a selection of the closed area, it selects everything BUT that area, so she has to go to Select -> Inverse to get the area she wants. Mine works perfectly normally so I am stumped as to how to fix this. It used to work for her.

Thanks
Shel

Look at the various options on the Options Bar with the Pen selected. Apparently had the wrong icon clicked.
