About selections

There are separate sets of tools to make selections of bitmap and vector data. For example, to select bitmap pixels, you can use the marquee tools or the lasso tools.

To select vector data, you can use the pen or shape tools, which produce precise outlines called paths. You can convert paths to selections or convert selections to paths. (See  Converting between paths and selection borders (Photoshop).)
