MesterFuzzles Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Every time I use the paint bucket on something, it always leaves a small grey outline on the edges. Does anyone know how to get rid of that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 It's caused by your edges being antialiased (smoothed). The pixels that are used to 'smooth' the edge are not being colored along with the rest of the region. This is because they are not similar enough to the pixel you clicked the tool on. Try fine tuning the tolerance setting in the toolbar. Increasing the % will fill more pixels, decreasing the % will fill less pixels.

pdnnoob Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Another way to solve the issue is to use the magic wand tool to select the area you wish to fill, then add a new layer and fill the selection with color. After deselecting, use the outline object plugin to your preferred settings. This is done to try to keep the edge from becoming pixelated while you are filling the surroundings.

Gilbert1 Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I thinks paint full layer of new color on the gray color is best option to get rid from it,. Quote <stupid spam sig removed> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
