Hi! I am from Russia, so I can describe the situation is not very correct. In advance pardon.
I am using Pixelmator Pro 1.0.4 and cannot find the option to create a shape from an image. In Pixelmator 3.7 I used "color selection" or "quick selection" and click "convert to shapes". I've tried many ways but no progress.

Hi Maks!

Your English is very good, don't worry.

I believe that Pixelmator Pro has been launched very early with features being added with every release. The latest version is 1.0.9 and doesn't yet include Convert Selection into Shape. I'm hoping that it is added soon.

I'd recommend updating your version frequently so that you get these features as soon as they are added.

All the best.

Not sure if this helps, but if you convert the selection into a shape in the original Pixelmator, you can drag the shape from the Shapes palette onto your desktop to export it, then drop it into the Pixelmator Pro Shapes palette to add it and use it in Pixelmator Pro.
