Option to remove a specific color from the canvas

i like animating using scratch but its time consuming to have to get rid of the reference drawing when i try animating, so how about a tool that you just select a color and it gets rid of it. preferably on bitmap.

Like a paint bucket but it effects all objects of that color? Also, this would only really work on bitmap, and I couldn't really see it being implemented into vector or how that would even happen.

As a workaround for you, I'd suggest making a new sprite with the reference and you can draw and look at the project player to draw.

Yes just a button where you select the color and it will delete it from the canvas.

Oof, I've encountered that issue way too may times. This is actually a thing in many drawing apps, and I find it really useful! Implementing it in vector shouldn't make any difference as it could just fill all shapes of the colour with your chosen colour. Maybe it could be a mode for the fill tool?

This is already implemented. Just shift click a color with the paint bucket tool.

Yep that’s the technique I used when I animated on scratch, it’s very helpful.

But I also support this idea! It would be so helpful

Yeah, they should put some kind of tooltip or message in the editor that says you can do that.

Or at least something in the footer about all of this.


That would’ve been so useful…


Anyways, if it isn’t implemented for vector, so ig you could suggest that..?
