    I don't understand the issue. When you activate the tool and drag the brush-cursor over the object that is to be selected, you should see a moving outline ("marching ants") surrounding it. One can add to, or, subtract from the selection by clicking on the appropriate icon and dragging the brush-cursor to suit.

    Are you able to to do this?

    Choose the tool and click and/or drag an area. Make sure the proper layer is selected.

    Alt + click to subtract from the selection, Shift + click at add to the selection.
