In FSRepaint there is an annoying AutoFill built into the program that i am unable to turn off.

When you are using the Fill Bucket to fill in a colour if you happen to be filling in a lot of little areas if you go too fast it will autofill nearly everything on that particular page that is the same or similar colour. I have been unable to find a way of turning it off.

The trouble is if you are doing fine detailed work and have it zoomed right in, it can end up filling in areas that you didn't want changed. This can be very annoying and sometinmes you have to start from scratch again as the undo doesn't go back far enough to reverse the mistakes and it can end up turning the whole job into a one colour square removing all the line work automaticly before you realise it has happened.

Anyone else had similar problem and is there a way of turning it off besides dumping the whole program.

I have been to the Abacus site and there is no information available and i have sent countless emails with no response.
Thanks Allen

Unfortunately FSRepaint doesn't have layers, but as Locke said you can select the small areas first using the wand, then any filling you do can't affect any other areas.

If you need more control than FSRepaint can offer, export the files to an external editor - Photoshop is the preferred choice, PSP is much cheaper, and PhotoPlus 7.0 was free on a cover disk a few months ago.

Regardless of which software you are using, remember to save frequently!

FSRepaint!  does have the magic wand selector to select only those parts that you want to make active.

It is ALWAYS a good idea to pre-select those areas you want to fill in, etc., so that you don't "color outside the lines".

Alternartively, use your regular paint program to edit the textures, and the default FSRepaint editor for pixel/ small area touchups.
