Have you ever needed to use the Lasso tool in a zoomed in state but not been able to fit the entire area in your window? This is a pain because it always forces you to zoom out and not get as good of a selection as you would like.
Well, your troubles are over! If you are zoomed in, you can scroll while lassoing in Photoshop. When you get near the edge and you need to scoll to continue using the Lasso tool, don’t let go of the Lasso tool and hit the Spacebar. What this does is temporarily activate the Hand tool so you can scroll. Just let go of the Spacebar when you are ready to continue using the Lasso tool!
