Hi @KazeNoInari ! I think you have intersection mode enabled in the context bar.

it’s not that. that was the fist thing i did when i noted this thing. even after changing it, it still doesn’t select

Sorry, I couldn’t reproduce it. I think resetting the preferences folder should work (Aseprite - Docs - Reset-preferences).
Anyway, if this does not help, please contact us at support@aseprite.org and tell us what version of Aseprite you are using, OS, and if you can share your aseprite.ini with us.

ok. thank you anyways

I’ve also had issues with it specifically in tiled mode, where it flashes for a moment and selects nothing. It’s just with the wand tool in tiled mode as well. I hope this gives some sort of lead if you’ve not tried this exactly, but if you have I’m not sure what’s going on. I’ll send a drive link with my current config in a few as well if that would help.

Thanks @Lunathir! that’s right, this is a bug in tiled mode, it works if we click/use the magic wand in the first top-left ninth. I’ll create an issue about this.

yeah that’s it. what a infuriating bug
thanks
