Fills an area with a single color or a continuous gradient. Does not
work on grayscale images.
- Solid
- fills a region with a constant color
- Vert.Gradient
- - fills a region with colors increasing or
decreasing top to bottom
- Horiz.Gradient
- - fills a region with colors increasing or
decreasing left to right
- Normal
- - Pre-select an area beforehand by dragging a rectangular
region with the mouse, or double-clicking on an object. The entire
selected region or object will be filled.
- Interactive
- - Click inside each object to fill. The objects
must be completely surrounded by a boundary which is between
the ``lower boundary color'' and the ``upper boundary color''.
If there are gaps in the object's border, the color will spill
out onto the area surrounding the object.
When finished, click on the main ``Cancel'' button, or press Esc.
Note: ``Flood fill'' and ``Add/Remove Gradient'' both can create color
gradients, but work in different ways. Flood fill adds color to all pixels
in a region bounded by user-specified upper and lower RGB values and therefore
determines the area to be colored automatically. ``Add/Remove Gradient''
adds the gradient to the entire selected area. It is therefore easier to
control precisely where the color is added by selecting the desired area
beforehand.
