Preparing selections for transformations
Before attempting to transform a selection, it’s important to determine if it’s path-based or pixel-based
because the selection type determines which transformations you can perform. For example, path-based
selections support many transformations that pixel-based selections do not. However, you can convert a
pixel-based selection to a path-based selection to apply transformations to it. For more information, see “To
convert a pixel-based selection to a path-based selection” on page 583.
To prepare a selection for a transformation, you can set the reference point around which the
transformation is performed. The reference point is located at the center of the selection by default.
You can also apply transformation simultaneously across multiple layers. For more information, see
“Transforming layers” on page 530.
To determine the selection type
In the toolbox, click the Selection Adjuster tool , and then click a selection.
If the selection displays handles, the selection is path-based.
If the selection does not have handles, it is pixel-based.
