I want to select an image about 1-2cm from the edges of the image.

When I use select it ends up selecting very close to the image then the whole image.

Please see this video to see how I want to use select.

    You are using the wrong tool. You want to be using the Lasso Tool which is just above the one you are currently using.

    Is there a specific part of this video that you are having problems replicating? If so, could you point out a specific time?
