I want it to behave like Microsoft Paint where deleting just makes the selection turn white. I don't want delete to turn the selection area into a transparent area. This is because when I use the image in a pdf, I get annoying boxes like such

With white as your first color, and the area selected (after you delete the area) press "backspace' and it will become white.

 

You can use Shift + Backspace to fill a selection with white (white is the default Secondary color).

Ahh - thank you :)  I've never tried it myself, so now know no need to change the color 😁
