3.20. Stroke Selection

3.20. Stroke Selection
	3. The “Edit” Menu

The Stroke Selection command strokes a selection in the image. There are two ways you can stroke the selection, either by using a paint tool or without using one. This means that the selection border, which is emphasised in the image with a dotted line, can be drawn with a stroke. There are various options which you can use to specify how this stroke should look.

	Note
	This command is only active if the image has an active selection.

3.20.1. Activate the Command

You can access this command from the image menubar through Edit → Stroke Selection.
You can also access it through the Selection Editor.

3.20.2. The “Stroke Selection” dialogue

	Note
	The options for stroking selections and for stroking paths are the same. You can find the documentation about the options in the dialogue box in the Stroke Path section.
