How Do I Cut a Selection in Photoshop?

When you cut a selection, you remove the selected pixels from the image and leave the unselected pixels in place. You can use the Cut command to cut out a object from its background, or to remove a portion of an object. When you cut a selection, you can move it to another location in the same image, or to another open image.

To cut a selection:

  1. Open an image in Photoshop.
  2. Select the area that you want to cut.
  3. Choose Edit > Cut.

When you cut a selection, the area that was occupied by the selection becomes transparent. If you move the selection, the unselected portion of the image is revealed where the selection was moved.
