Recently, photographer Stuart Weston showed me how he used the paint bucket tool to add small filled patches of color to a large composite fashion image. The paint bucket tool options are all shown below in Figure 1.įigure 1 The Paint bucket tool Options bar.Īs much as I try to ignore the paint bucket, people keep coming up with ways to prove me wrong. To do this, choose the Pattern mode from the Options bar and select the pattern type. If you want to fill the selection with a pattern or a foreground color, specify that option. The Paint Bucket tool can be accessed by clicking and holding the Gradient tool. The paint bucket can also be used to fill with patterns as well as with a solid color. Where Is The Paint Bucket Tool In Photoshop CS6 In the toolbar, Paint Bucket and Gradient are grouped together. A Contiguous option is also available for the paint bucket (see the magic wand description) and the All Layers option neatly allows you to fill using a pixel color sample based on all layers. You can use the paint bucket to quickly fill the inside areas of a mask or quick mask outline. One may also ask, what is the Paint Bucket tool used for Adobe Photoshop/Paint Bucket Tool. and choose a gap size option: Click the shape or enclosed area that you want to fill. Color Tools: Click the Gap Size modifier. Choose a fill color from the color tool box. In this mode of operation, there is none of the flexibility associated with making a magic wand or Color Range selection and modifying it before filling. To use the Paint Bucket tool to fill an area: Select the Paint Bucket tool. The paint bucket tool amounts to the same as ‘make a magic wand selection based on the sampled color and Tolerance setting in the Options bar and fill the selection with the current foreground color or predefined pattern’.
