How Do I Make a Selection Symmetrical in Photoshop?

To create symmetrical selections in Photoshop, you can use the Symmetry Painting option.

Here's how, based on the reference provided:

1. Activate Symmetry Mode: Photoshop has a symmetry mode available. It splits the canvas into symmetrical sections. The example uses the mandala setting.

2. Choose the Number of Sections: In the options for Symmetry Painting, you can define how many sections you want for your symmetry. The reference example shows choosing five sections for a pentagon-shaped symmetry.
