rsi.studio Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Hi there, did a forum/help files search for Fill commands but nothing popped up so I'd like to request ... Right Click > Fill Selection with foreground/background colour. This would be useful for marquee selections as well as any other selections & especially for masking purposes. It was great to see Set black/white in custom keybord prefs in ver.1.4, perhaps even the option to ... Fill with foreground or background option in custom keyboard.

I will try log this problem when I get a mo & post to the help section but starting with a new document today, all regular fill commands have returned. 'till later...
