is one of the three lasso tools in Photoshop. It is especially useful for quickly selecting objects with complex edges set against high-contrast backgrounds.
The Polygonal Lasso Tool is useful for drawing straight-edged segments of a selection border. It makes it easy to create more complex vector shapes like stars, triangles, hexagons and more.
