The Photoshop Magic Wand Tool is great for speeding up selection of specific colors and areas in your images and artwork. The Photoshop Magic Wand Tool has lots of settings that let you customize exactly how it makes its selections.
In your Photoshop toolbar, the magic wand is the icon near the top that looks like a magic wand.
This tool provides you with a powerful way to make selections, but it's not the most accurate in that it doesn't usually select all the things you want, but it can get pretty close if play with the settings.
At it's core, the magic wand tool is a color selector. If you set the tolerance to zero it will only select pixels of the exact same color. As you increase the tolerance you're allowing it to select colors that are further and further from your original selection.
This let's your Photoshop selections be as accurate as you set them to be.
With Photoshop magic wand you can also set it to select only continuous selections. Which means that it will only select the pixels if they are physical connected in the image.
If you don't select continuous then you will be selecting pixels of the same color or same range of colors (if you have tolerance of more than zero) all over the image.
You can also use the Add Selection icon to keep on adding selections each time you click somewhere with the magic wand tool.
You can use the Subtract Selection icon to remove selections.
You can use the Intersection icon to select only the areas where two selections intersect.
That's all there is to it. I hope this information helps you! If you have any questions leave a comment below
