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.

THERE COULD BE A COLOR FILLING TOOL. EXAMPLE, FILLING THE INTERSECTION OF A SET WITH A COLOR.

I know there are a lot of suggestions for a fill tool, but my idea would be to implement this feature without a tool.
After drawing a Diagram/Shape/Whatever that you want colored in (completely, not shaded), it's always a real hassle to fill it in manually using the pencil. Adding another tool like a Paint bucket would make it easier, but still a bit tedious. In my opinion, the best way to approach this, especially for the Apple Pencil, is the Way Procreate did it. you can just drag a color from the Menu par, and drop it on a surface to fill it in. Here's a video showcasing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3xalseUNn8&
I added a very rough sketch to show what I mean in Goodnotes.
I'd really appreciate if you considered this Idea. -

A really neat implementation of this would be to just be able to grab the colors out of the toolbar with the Pencil and drop them onto empty spaces. Would remove the need for an extra tool. I've seen it somewhere but don't remember where. I added a rough sketch to show what I mean.

I support this. I have an exercise solution sheet. I wanted to cover up the solutions to solve it myself but couldn't use shapes. Stickers ratio cannot be modified so I couldn't use stickers. Trying to put an image to cover it was annoying and I had to cover all solutions by striking it out with the pen. It took my time and it looks very ugly.

A "dump" tool like in Microsoft paint where you can fill in shapes that you have drawn (why do shapes fill in with a transparent color? Why isn't there an opaque option?)

I created an account just to add my support to this. There should be a simple slider added to the Colour picker for the amount of transparency. See MS Word or Excel for an example of this.

Yes, there is already the toggle to fill with the same colour in highlighter. Would be super easy to specify which fill option you wanted.

Yes, this is what I'm looking for!

Easy to implement would be that you have another additional option in the draw and hold settings for the pencil where you can add a toggle with no transparency which isn't grey when you have fill in colour switched on.
That would easily solve the problem. -

This is so needed and seems not to be too hard to implement. I hope they implement it.

I would be happy if the precise eraser could be adjusted again. But it is at least as important to create a ācolor bucket toolā, so that surfaces can be colored faster. TY!
Iād be soooooo grateful, because I already LOVE this app. Better than any other

It would be cool to have a filler option, as a person who makes a lot of diagrams and is very visual, i would love to be able to fill spaces and shapes with a color.

I would appreciate to have the ability to fill the shapes I draw with the pen and markers fully, without the transparent background. Maybe a scrolling bar for the percentage of transparency would be easier to implement, but Iām sure you guys can do this beautifully

1) Draw a closed line (it doesn't have to be precise, but it must be closed!)
2) Select a color from this new tool
3) Drag the color into the closed space
4) Color the space -

A paint bucket would save me time and energy, particularly when I'm creating diagrams and illustrations. I don't have the time or patience to color everything by hand, especially when I'm taking notes for school.
