[nkabuto]

Hello everyone, im new to Painter 9. I just want ask to a quick question that what is the shortcut key of filling a paper ? For example, in Photoshop, i can press Alt + del to fill the whole page with the foreground color. But in Painter, i cant do it. :(

Hi,

If you want to fill the Canvas, a Layer, or a selection on either the Canvas or a Layer with color:

1. Choose the color.

2. In Windows, use Ctrl+F (or Effects > Fill), Using: Current Color. On Mac's, use Command+F (or Effects > Fill), Using: Current Color.


When we open a new Canvas, the default Paper color is white, but we can choose another color as the base Canvas color by clicking the Paper Color... rectangle in the New dialog box and picking the color.

Later, if we want to change the base Canvas color (Paper color), we can pick the new color and use Canvas > Set Paper Color. Then if we erase on the Canvas, make a selection on the Canvas and clear the selection, or select the entire Canvas and click the Backspace key, the new base Canvas color (Paper color) is revealed.

For more information on the Set Paper Color command, go to PixelAlley and in the right column, read the two tutorials below Painter IX.5 The Painter Canvas Monthly Newsletter named:
