Fill tool is not working??

The fill tool for vector mode is not filling an area that I want it to. IDK, but vector mode just seems to be very glitchy in 3.0

Also, the area that I want to fill is pretty large. Maybe this is the problem?

The points probably aren't connected. Vector fill tool can only fill closed surfaces.

What if they don't want their sprite to become all pixelly?

True. I did change to bitmap as a last resort. But when I fill in bitmap, it says the points are connected, so IDK why it isn't working in vector. :p

Thanks for your advice though anyways!

The fill tool in vector can only change the colors of shapes, lines, and things. For example, you could change the color of a square or a circle. You can’t fill the background though since there isn’t anything actually there to fill.

Yeah, the fill tools doesn't work for backgrounds in Vector. I actually disliked this addition because I prefer my art to be in Vector but I can't color the background now.

I think the best approach is installing a new art application (if you don't like using Bitmap).

Ok, thanks, everyone for your help! I sort of just separated the area into smaller sections, then filled those areas. (I think there's a size limit to the area that you fill)

Great! I'll report this topic to be closed as it's resolved then.
