Is it possible to, like in Photoshop, click on more than one objects when using the magic wand? Like if I want to make a brush from some letters.
It’s possible, yeah - My method is to use the Fill Tool with Selection Mode (Mode > Selection -OR- Selection > Create Selection by Drawing) and “grab” the selected pixels.
Using selection mode, click as many times as needed with Fill Tool to create a selection around the desired pixels for the brush you want.
Then: Brush > Grab Frame as Brush (CTRL+A).
Now switch to Paint Tool, back to Paint Mode, and deselect.
You can now draw with the brush you created from the selection you made.
In 7.3 there will be true selection tools and a separate magic wand that can be used to add or remove selections. Today the selection functions are indeed very hidden by just being a Paint Mode that can be used with any tool. That makes it highly flexible but yet hard to find and/or to understand.

Sounds good @jan.cosmigo, I will try to learn how to use the paint mode for now, but will look forward to the upcoming selection tools.
