How do you invert a selection in Photoshop Elements?

To invert a selection in Photoshop Elements, you can use either of the following methods:

Method 1: Right-Click Menu

1. Make your selection using any selection tool (e.g., Marquee, Lasso, Magic Wand).
2. Right-click anywhere inside the selection area.
3. Select the Select Inverse option from the context menu.

Method 2: Menu Bar

1. Make your selection using any selection tool.
2. Go to the menu bar at the top of the Photoshop Elements window.
3. Click on the Select menu.
4. Choose Inverse from the dropdown menu.

Both methods accomplish the same task: they change your selection from the current area to everything outside of it.

Here is a summary:

Method	Steps
Right-Click Menu	1. Make Selection. 2. Right-Click. 3. Select Inverse.
Menu Bar	1. Make Selection. 2. Click 'Select' on menu bar. 3. Select 'Inverse'.

By following these steps, you can easily invert your selection, allowing you to apply edits or adjustments to the area that was not initially selected. For example, if you have selected a person in an image, inverting the selection lets you edit the background.
