Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 2:08 pm

There are a few different ways that you can move a selection marquee in Photoshop. One way is to simply click and drag the marquee with your mouse.

Another way is to use the arrow keys on your keyboard to nudge the selection marquee in small increments. And finally, you can also use the “transform” command to more precisely move and resize the selection marquee.

PRO TIP: If you are moving a selection marquee in Photoshop, be sure to hold down theShift key so you don’t accidentally move the layer as well.

To move the selection marquee with your mouse, simply click on it and then drag it to the new location. To nudge the selection marquee with your keyboard, first make sure that the “Move Tool” is selected from the toolbar. Then, you can use the arrow keys on your keyboard to nudge the selection in small increments.

To use the “transform” command, select the “Edit” menu and then choose “Transform.” This will give you options to move, rotate, or scale the selection. Simply choose the option that you want and then use your mouse to perform the desired action.

When you are finished moving the selection marquee, be sure to deselect it by clicking on the “Select” menu and choosing “Deselect.”
