magic wand

Hello, creative minds

I am new to Adobe Fresco and wonder if there is a magic wand tool or if that will get implemented in a future update (I want to select an element basically).

thanks for the feedback,

kind regards

    Hi Prplsnkgrp.

     

    I have heard a few requests for a Magic Wand type tool, but not a lot so I can't say what the plans are for incorporating one.

     

    But please take a minute please to post your feature request to User Voice (the team uses the site to prioritize features); it's easy to access from within Fresco:

    * From the Home screen tap the gear icon in the upper right corner of the screen. 

    * Then from the App Settings menu go to Help > Support > Suggest a feature

     

    Thanks for posting.

     

    Sue.

    I need to second that.

     

    magic wand or even better the object selection, would help me sososo much.

     

    If I want to draw on a specific picture and have it imported, I need the option to have parts of it selected quickly.

    Right now I need to draw my selection, which is a nice feature to edit a selection, but takes forever, compared to one tap with object selection or magic wand.

     

    please add object selection and wagic wand to adobe fresco!

     

    to everyone who feels the feat. should be in: write a comment, pls?!

      I find it most odd that there is not a magic wand selection tool ... so odd that I wonder if you're having problems incorporating one ..?  Adobe selection automation and 'perfection' in PS for example is a regular feature and so I cannot understand the Adobe response here.

        +1 / Magic Wand would be very helpfull, instead of having to make an extra layer & lock transparancy to paint inside a specific area.

            It's not that there's no plans for the tool. Both Fresco and Photoshop for the iPad are apps that are really young, and Adobe is still figuring out which tools users want in the apps and not bloat it with features that may not be used often. If plenty of users suggest it as a feature, I'm more than certain it will eventually be added. Just be patient and be communicative with the staff. The developers are listening and are receptive to ideas

            Please incorporate the magic wand. It is one of the most useful tools from Photoshop and has been for 20 years! Saves file sizes by not having to add layers. Also saves steps. Certainly far from bloating the program. I'm trying to incorporate all my finished work thru my iPad now and this would be so welcomed. I think the only other thing really missing that could really be great is a levels option so there's at least one color correct option so there's no need to edit in PS. Pretty please! Thanks!
