Having trouble with the paint bucket mutating colors

[Drakim]

This might be a bug, or it might just be me not aware of some option or slider somewhere.

 

Test 1 - Pencil tool, expected behavior

1. I start with the color 255,165,155, with an alpha transparency value of 255.
2. I change the alpha value of the color I'm currently holding from 255 to 2
3. I set the pencil tool to "overwrite" and not "normal blending"
4. I draw some transparent pixels in a lump

Result: Color picker confirms that this lump is now color 255,165,155 with alpha channel 2

 

 

Test 2 - Paint bucket, unexpected behavior

1. I start with the color 255,165,155, with an alpha transparency value of 255.
2. I change the alpha value of the color I'm currently holding from 255 to 2
3. I set the pencil tool to "overwrite" and not "normal blending" (it applies to the paint bucket as well)
4. I do a flood fill action somewhere

Result: Color picked now says that the color that has been filled is 255, 127, 127 with alpha channel 2

 

 

How come? Is there a way I can tell the paint bucket to fill the color I'm currently using, and not this other strange color that it seems to like better?

I believe you are currently in PDN 3.5 - if you upgrade to PDN 4 this problem should go away - it's been fixed.

Indeed it has! Silly me not to check that was up to date on the newest version.

 

Thanks for the help.
