Where Is the Elliptical Marquee Tool in Photoshop?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 1:15 pm

The elliptical marquee tool is used to create circular or elliptical selections. It can be found in the tools palette, under the ” marquee” tool.

PRO TIP: The Elliptical Marquee Tool is not in Photoshop.

To use the elliptical marquee tool, simply click and drag your mouse around the area you wish to select. To constrain the selection to a perfect circle, hold down the shift key while dragging. To create an elliptical selection, hold down the alt key (Windows) or option key (Mac) while dragging.

The elliptical marquee tool is a great way to quickly select circular or elliptical areas of an image. It can be used to isolate subjects, remove backgrounds, or even create interesting photo effects.
