Paint Bucket Color Fill

Similar to MS paint it would be useful to have a paint bucket tool that would fill a color inside the lines of a shape. Most of the functionality is already added with the shape fill color option, but for drawings that dont use it there is no efficient way to fill the space.

    Unlike in other note apps, you can't fill-in shapes with colors yourself. Either you can do a shape that's semi-transparent or you can fill it yourself manually. It would be grate to have a bucket tool able to paint both geometrical and non-geometrical figures!

    Yes!!! And also please please please add this for the highlighter! I want to draw a box around my answer in highlighter and have it be filled without overlapping!

    I do a lot of sketches with my notes. Need when drawing furniture.

    YES!!! Can we change opacity of colors and photos too please?!

    would be great if there was a 'fill in' option for colouring in shapes when drawing diagrams etc.

    When we draw a shape it should automatically fill the shape with a light shade of the same colour like in IOS version

  • Paulchen commented  ·   ·  Report

    It would be nice to have the ability to fill different shapes with an extra tool. This is a thing I also miss in samsung notes (and a reason for me to switch to GoodNotes if the app comes out in the full version).
    This tool should work for pen and marker.

    Not only the option for a solid fill where you can change the color and transparency but a pattern fill option (stripes/dots/etc) similar to the pattern fill in PowerPoint?

    Add bucket fill, like it is in most painting apps. It would make note-taking a lot easier if you want to draw a picture for something.

    I keep coming back to Procreate because of the custom brushes and this. I know this app is not for drawing but taking notes will be much easier with these two features.

    I agree with this. Getting one point out of the way, that this app ā€œisnā€™t an art app/programā€. I disagree somewhat; MANY students, teachers, scholars, philosophers, writers, researchers, and other note-takers are very visual in their thought processes. For this reason GoodNotes (5) was the obvious and best choice for myself, and I have thoroughly enjoyed using it. But in using the art tools supplied I do find a couple of missing functions and tools mildly frustrating. I support the idea for a fill in paint bucket option. Even if this just meant dragging your selected colour to an empty spot on the canvas to apply the fill (easy as that).

    Unlike in procreate, you can't fill-in shapes with colors yourself. Either you can do a shape that's semi-transparent or you can fill it yourself manually.
