Frequently asked questions
What does the paint bucket fill?
Connected pixels that match within the tolerance you set.
Why did it flood the whole photo?
Tolerance was too high, or the area was not isolated. Lower tolerance or fill inside a selection.
Can I fill only a selected region?
Yes. Make a selection first so the flood cannot leak.
Is this a vector fill?
No. It fills pixels on a raster layer.
