Unlike in Adobe Photoshop, the Lasso tool in Illustrator does not create a selection in the shape you draw. Instead, it selects all the shapes and vectors inside the shape you draw with the Lasso tool. For improved accuracy, you may want to zoom in on the area you want to select before using the Lasso tool. . To do so, press “Ctrl and +” (or “Command and +” on Mac) to zoom in. You can also click the magnifying glass icon in the toolbar to the left and then click on the area you want to zoom in on. If you do not draw a complete shape with the Lasso tool, Illustrator will automatically connect the ends of the shape for you. If you want to add more shapes or vectors to your selection, select the Lasso selection too. Hold Shift and draw around the shapes and/or vectors you want to add to your selection. To subtract objects or vector points from your hold “Alt” (or “Option” on Mac) and use the Lasso tool to draw around objects you want to subtract from your selection.
Alternatively, you can press “V” on the keyboard to select the Selection tool, or press “A” on the keyboard to select the Subselection tool.
If you use the Subselection tool to move vector points from a shape that is not completely selected, this will warp and distort the shape. Alternatively, you can copy and paste your selection. To do so, press “Ctrl + C” (or “Command + C” on Mac) to copy the selection. Then press “Ctrl + V” (or “Command + V” on Mac) to paste the selection. You can also apply effects to your selection. To do so, click Effects in the menu bar at the top. Then click the effect you want to apply.
