CHAPTER 7

For Tolerance, enter a value or drag the slider. 

A low tolerance limits erasure to areas that are very 
similar to the sampled color. A high tolerance 
erases a broader range of colors.

Specify the rate at which a brush stroke fades 

dynamically. (See “Specifying a paint fade-out 
rate” on page 149.)

Drag through the area you want to erase. 

The background eraser tool pointer appears as 
a brush shape with a cross hair indicating the tool’s 
hotspot ( ).

The Auto Erase option for the pencil tool lets you 
paint the background color over areas containing 
the foreground color.

Specify foreground and background colors. 

Select the pencil tool ( ).

Select Auto Erase.

Drag over the image. 

If you begin dragging over the foreground color, 
the area is erased to the background color. If you 
begin dragging from an area that doesn’t contain 
the foreground color, the area is painted with the 
foreground color. 

The impressionist brush tool lets you paint with 
stylized strokes. By experimenting with different 
paint style, fidelity, size, and tolerance options, 
you can simulate the texture of painting with 
different colors and artistic styles.

Select the impressionist brush tool (

).

Choose a brush from the pop-up menu in the 

options bar. (See “Using pop-up palettes” on 
page 35.)

Choose a mode from the drop-down list.
