X2. Can't set Range in edge seeker

[OldNick]

I thought I was supposed to be able to, and in PSP9 I could, but when I use the edge seeker, the Range section is greyed out.

Help says it should be available.

Am I using a wrong setting? ANy suggestions about what could be causing this?

Thanks for any help

It works fine for me, Nick, but I find the Range section is greyed out when selecting Freehand, Point to Point and Smart Edge...how odd!
The same results with PSP X, so I imagine that's how the selection freehand tool is set up. But I'm afraid it doesn't answer your question, though.

My memory betrayed me. In PSP 9 the wording is "You can only use the Range in Edge Seeker". It's worded a bit differently in X2. Also I was using the wrong terminology. I was using Smart Edge (the rectangle) not Edge Seeker.

So I was rather muxed ip.

Glad you got that sorted, Nick. Solved the mystery of the greyed out boxes in the other Selection Tool selections, too.

Hehe. Well I hope it helps _someone_. I feel a bit daft.

Nick, the little () icon is there for a reason! You'd be surprised how often it's used. We all do it, so my advice is to pay it no mind.
