and if u move it the line will automatically fit to whatever ur moving
is there anyway to do this without having to move anything?

If you CTRL-click the layer thing that you want selected it will automatically select it for you.
Aside form that i don't know of another way.
sry not quite the thing i was wanting (i now have a feeling its impossible lol) but yeah thx for trying and at least i learned something new :D
lol yeah i didn't think you were asking about that, your seemed mroe complicated but i tried. Google always helps.
ALso i HIGHLY reccomend reading Photoshop for dummies. When i was starting i read it and it will help you like you wont beleive.
See if this helps with what you're after:
Select Marquee Tool and draw a box or press or Ctrl/Cmd + A to get a selection.
When using the Marquee, make sure it's set to "New Selection" Mode
Hover inside the area to get a Cursor with a little white box
Move it round and you only move the Selection area, not the image inside
If that's not what you want then i think you need to explain a bit better.
lol
i cant find the marquee tool xD
meh ill post some screenies of what i mean sometime soon :)
Can't find the Marquee tool? haha... okay, now i know the level of user here :p
This is a screen of the Marquee tool with it set to "New selection"
Once you've dragged out your box, click and hold with the cursor inside the box and you can move it round without moving what's in the box.
