Fill specific areas of an image with color in Pixelmator Pro on Mac

The Color Fill tool detects similarly colored areas in an image, then fills them with a solid color.

  1. In Pixelmator Pro on Mac, select the Color Fill button in the Tools sidebar.

  2. If you want to limit the color fill to a specific layer in your composition, select that layer in the Layers sidebar.

  3. To customize the fill’s properties, do any of the following in the Color Fill pane.

    • Color: Click the color well, and select a new fill color.

    • Blend mode: Click the Blend Mode pop-up menu next to Opacity, then choose a blend mode to set how the fill blends with the content or layers below it.

    • Opacity: Drag the slider to adjust the transparency of the fill.

    • Sample all layers: Select this checkbox to have the color fill affect all layers in your composition.

    • Smooth edges: Select this checkbox to naturally smooth the fill outline.

    • Preserve transparency: Select this checkbox to fill only the opaque areas of an image, leaving the transparent areas untouched.

  4. Do any of the following:

    • Click in the canvas to fill an area with color.

    • Drag in the canvas to fill in similarly colored areas with the new color. As you drag, color tolerance increases, filling a larger area of the image with the new color.

Tip: To quickly apply a fill, drag the color you want from a color well directly onto the image.
