Fill layer, but keep transparent pixels (Alpha) in AF Photo


Recommended Posts

Affinity Photo question:

I would like to fill a whole layer, but keep my transparent pixels information. So only pixels should be filled, that are visible and not the whole layer.

Is there a shortcut for this? In Photoshop you was able to use Alt+Backspace to fill the whole layer with the foreground color e.g.

Thank you!

A "protect alpha" option has been omitted from the Fill command's options, but there is a way: in Channels panel, disable alpha editing by clicking the little pencil icon at the right hand end of the Composite Alpha line and then do the fill. (Click the greyed out pencil icon to restore alpha editing.)

Thank you. That helped!
