Simply press the shift key and drag around the area you want include

Remember that the pixel you click determines the base color.

If the pixel gods are with you and you selected everything
you want on the first click,
you’re done. If your selection needs further tweaking, like the top image shown in Figure 7-8, continue to Step 3.

Tolerance 80

4. Click your desired element again.

Unfortunately, the Magic Wand tool isn’t magical enough to modify your first selection automatically. Instead, it deselects the current selection and makes a new selection based on your new Tolerance setting. If it still isn’t right, you can adjust the Tolerance setting again. Try, try again.

If your selection doesn’t quite contain all the elements you want to capture, you need to add those portions to your current selection border. To add to a current selection, simply press the Shift key and drag around the area you want to include. If you’re using the Polygonal Lasso, click around the area. And, if you’re wielding the Magic Wand, just press the Shift key and click the area you want.

	You don’t have to use the same tool to add to your selection as you used to create the original selection. Feel free to use whatever selection tool you think can get the job done. For example, it’s very common to start off with the Magic Wand and fine-tune with the Lasso tool.
