                  MAGNETIC LASSO TOOL

                  Magnetic Lasso Tool is an edge detection tool which searches for the edge of the object as you
                  move your mouse pointer around the object. It makes the selection on the edges and clings to it.
                  It performs best when your image has a lot of contrast between the foreground and background
                  elements—for example, a basket full of fruits with a light coloured background. To use the Magnetic
                  Lasso tool, follow the given steps:
