Fireworks gives you the ability to modify your pixel selections in a variety of ways. I am going to go ahead and select the rectangular marquee tool, and I am going to select an area here on our bitmap image. Now while I am still holding down the mouse button, I am going to hold down the space bar. And now I can move this selection anywhere I want to on this bitmap image. And when I release the mouse button, we now have our selection. I can also move this selection in one-pixel increments at a time, and you do that with the arrow keys. By pressing them down you can nudge a selection down one pixel at a time, or back up, or left, then right. Holding down the shift key and the arrow key, you can now move this selection 10 pixel increments at a time. You can also drag the cursor inside the selected area. And you notice that the cursor changes; outside we have sort of a cross, and once we bring it inside it turns into a pointer tool indicating we have a marquee selection. Holding down the mouse button I can move the selection anywhere I need to. I can also add to this marquee selection by holding down the shift key, and then selecting another area. And when I release my mouse button we've now selected both sections. Also using the Alt key I can remove a selection from these pixels. So we can subtract pixels from a selection, add pixels to a selection, or even punch out parts of the selection, and redefining our pixel areas. We can also select pixels within an existing marquee by drawing a marquee that overlaps the original. I will go ahead and select a rectangular marquee. And holding down the Alt+shift keys, I can select this area. And when I release my mouse you can see the selected areas within the new marquee have been selected. Now we can modify our marquee selection from the main menu. Under the select main menu, we can select all which will select all of the pixels within our bitmap image. We can deselect the current marquee selection, and we can select similar. And this works much like the magic wand that will select all similar pixels. I will go ahead and click out here to the side, and select this area again; we can select the inverse. Using inverse you can select and then erase all the pixels surrounding the original selection. From the select menu, you can feather your selection, you can expand the marquee, contract it, put a border on the marquee, or smooth the marquee. And all these selections are done with a radius of the pixels that you indicate. For example I will place 15, and now we have smoothed our marquee selection by 15 pixels. cate. For example I will place 15, and now we have smoothed our marquee selection by 15 pixels.
