<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm writing the selection chapter of the
manual and it hidme that we should rename the two special select tools
"selection picker" and "select contiguous"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The "selection picker" should be "select similar"
because that it what it does. It doesn't pick anything - not like the color
picker anyway</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>And "select contiguous" should be "flood selecting"
or "select flood"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This one is called "magic wand" in photoshop and
possible other applications too. In fact our icon is a magic wand which seem a
bit confusing. However I don't think we should call it magic wand - it is pretty
non-descriptive for new users. I just learned that now, and I have been using
photoshop on and off for a number of years, but have never felt compelled to
learn a tool with such a weird name. Had the name said "this is what I do - I
might be useful" then I would have investigated it further.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>"Select contiguous" is not too bad, but since the
function is very similar to normal flood filling I think that "flood selecting"
would be more descriptive.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What do you think?</FONT></DIV>
