A pattern can be applied as a fill from the Context toolbar by picking a Pattern<br />
(click the thumbnail) from the gallery, then choosing the Fill drop down list to be<br />
"Pattern".<br />
To use the Flood Fill Tool:<br />
1. Select the Flood Fill Tool from the Tools toolbar's Fill Tools flyout.<br />
2. Set tolerance and layer fill options (see above) on the Context toolbar.<br />
3. Click with the tool where you want to start the fill.<br />
The Edit>Fill... command lets you flood-fill a region on a standard layer using any<br />
colour, not just the foreground colour. On the other hand, it’s strictly a solid colour<br />
flood without the subtleties of the Flood Fill Tool’s properties. Simply choose the<br />
command to display the Fill dialog.<br />
To use the Fill command:<br />
• Choose Fill... from the Edit menu. The Fill dialog appears.<br />
• For a flood fill, set the Type to Colour.<br />
• Choose whether the fill colour is to be the current Foreground colour,<br />
Background colour or a Custom colour.<br />
• Specify the blend mode and opacity of the fill.<br />
If you check Preserve Transparency, transparent areas will resist the flood<br />
colour; otherwise, everything in the selection or layer will be equally washed<br />
with the fill.
