I'm having an issue creating stickers from the gallery.

In the past, we could long press to get a sticker selection amd then manually edit that selection.
 
Now however, the ai selection makes it's selection, and we get no option to adjust that selection at all.
(For instance, I wanted just a head selection, but instead it selected the entire object with now option to crop or adjust it.)
 
Getting some videos posted on how these new tools can be used would be SO helpful, instead of only seeing 50,000 camera shootouts.

i feel the same exact way as you just described! i think the only way to get back the editing features we liked & used everyday, is to get another phone, unfortunately! i have the A03, & i believe they had removed most major edit tools from certain phones, which is BS! wish i realized this b4 i got this stupid phone! lal!

This picture had  nothing selectable when trying to make a sticker but it could also have had only one building being automatically selectable where I wanted to make  sticker out of a different building. 

 So in Gallery I select EDIT and then the Four Circle Tool icon in the edit menu highlighted in this next Pic.

Next tap the lasso icon from the menu highlited below

Select the type of tool you want use, whether free hand or shape and highlight what you want to cut and turn into the sticker.  When you have that click on NEXT (highlighted) in the upper right of the editor to create the clip

Once you have the clip a menu pops up and you have the option to save it as a sticker.  You can also select the entire image and save that as a sticker.

To paste an full image  the easiest way I've found is to first, open the image that you want to paste in Gallery and then from the 3 dot menu select "Copy to Clipboard"

Next, open the Pic that you want to paste the "Sticker"  and "Paste" by pressing and holding or if you use a mouse like I do, right click for the menu and paste.  You can place and resize the image as you like.

Ok, that worked. Thank you. I still think it was better before. With the lasso, I used to be able to take out the picture dividing lines.
What about the sticker choice?1717442810702.jpg

Hi I have suffered the same frustration and while I found a workaround I am not happy with the changes. You can actually hit the three dots of the image you want to copy and click "copy to clipboard" and then go to another image you wish to place that image on top of and select paste from clipboard. Of course this is repetitive and requires you make the stickers yourself using a third party app which I recommend the "Background Eraser" app. You can make your custom stickers there and them paste them using the method I mentioned to avoid the stupid auto correct one that ends up erasing important features.

Not a solution, because it doesn't work. There is no menu after using the lasso tool. 

Please change the post back to unsolved.
