<h2>Paint Bucket Tool</h2>
<p>This tool may be used to fill an area with a specific color. You can
position the cursor on the area that you wish fill with color and then click
the left mouse button to fill with the primary color, or click the right
mouse button to use the secondary color.</p>
<p>The region that gets filled is defined as the area surrounding where you
clicked that has a uniform color. The tolerance of this definition of
uniformity is controlled with the Tolerance slider in Tools Window.</p>
<p>The paint bucket will also use the fill style that you have chosen in the
<a href="Toolbar.html#DrawingControls">Toolbar</a>.</p>
<p>In the example shown below, two circles were drawn. The Tolerance was set
to a value of 75% to make sure that the anti-aliased edges of the circles
were also affect. The paint bucket was then used three
times: once inside each circle, and then once in the area between the
circles. A different color was used for each use of the paint bucket.</p>
