lasgor Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I am using the Flood Select Tool in Photo 1.6.2.97 (in Windows 10). It seems to work differently than other softwares (I have compared it to Paint.NET's Magic Wand, Krita's Contiguous Selection Tool and GIMP's Fuzzy Select Tool). If I start with a blank canvas and paint using a brush with low hardness to get soft edges and then use the Flood Select Tool, it only wants to select the entire outer bounds of the brush strokes regardless of the tolerance. If I pick a color from the gradient edge and draw with it and then use the Flood Select Tool, it seems to want to distinguish between the previously drawn strokes and the new ones. However if I select the newly drawn strokes, I would expect it to also include pixels from the edges of the first strokes, because the color of the second was picked from that edge. Please see attached gif. Expected behavior or a bug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Lee D Posted January 9, 2018 Staff Share Posted January 9, 2018 I suspect this is expected behavior as the Flood Select Tool is sampling the colour and then selecting the area the colour extends to. So even though the brushes hardness is reduced the colour is the same, just with a lower opacity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
