Can anyone help? I've been using the lasso tools to select things, but when a fastening point is added by mistake, pressing delete doesn't remove it. All the tutorials I've found say that this should work - any ideas why it doesn't? :?

make sure youve actually selected what your tryin to delete

I got the impression that as you're moving the tool along the line, if a fastening point is added by mistake - you can just get rid of the one point that you didn't want?

I just noticed as well that shortcuts aint working for me.. I press ctrl and + and it doesn't zoom in, or ctrl+alt+z and it doesn't step back?

You know what?! IT ACTUALLY HAS! I'm sitting here at my computer in total disbelief!

carry on with the sarcasm mate, im sure one "misclick" didnt really need its whole thread anyway.

a wacom will not make PS any easier, practice will.
