Filling Selections with Color

The Fill command lets you quickly and uniformly fill a selection with the foreground or background color, black, white, or gray. In addition, select an opacity level and transfer mode for application of the color.

To Fill a Selection with a Color:

  1. With an area of an image selected, choose Image | Filter | Other | Fill or use the Filter menu in the Properties bar.
  2. In the Fill dialog box, choose a fill option from the Use pop-up menu. To make the color appear transparent, set the Opacity level to less than 100%. To use a mode effect, choose an option in the Mode pop-up menu.
  3. Click OK to fill the selection.
