140 Painting, Drawing, and Text
To change a text or shape layer’s fill type, or edit its colour(s):
• Double-click the text/shape layer (or right-click and choose Edit Fill).
OR
• Choose the Gradient Fill Tool and use the context toolbar.
Either option lets you choose a fill type, and/or click the colour (or gradient)
sample to edit the fill.
On text or shape layers, the fill path (the line in the illustration above) remains
visible even after you’ve applied the fill, and you can adjust the fill’s placement
after the fact by dragging the fill path’s end nodes with the Gradient Fill Tool.
Cloning a region
The Clone Tool is like two magic brushes locked together. While you trace
or "pick up" an original drawing with one brush, the other draws ("puts down")
an exact duplicate somewhere else—even in another image.
