The Eraser will only erase within the selected area and you can vary the transparency by using a softer brush, or by adjusting the opacity of the brush.ģ) Background Eraser tool - Not recommended, probably will not give good results. The exact same steps as above, except, instead of using the Delete key or Clear command you use the eraser brush. Once it's selected just hit the 'Delete' key or select 'Edit -> Clear' to erase the selected area leaving it transparent.Ģ) Magic Wand + Eraser Tool - Not useful unless you need it.

So if you're hoping to do a Flood Fill with a transparent color, as the title of your topic suggests, then you would set the magic wand tool to the same settings as you'd have for the Flood Fill and click in the area you want to select. The magic wand tool offers many of the same options for selecting a color as the Flood Fill tool based on where you click. If you're trying to replace certain colors there are tools or options you can use to achieve this effect, depending on your method. This will either delete everything inside the layer or whatever you have selected. So we use the Delete key as a sort of 'flood fill' delete. So if you did managed a flood fill with a transparent color (gradient or texture would be the way to go) PSP would simply mix the transparent with the opaque and you'd be left with the exact same thing you already had. This means that transparency is added to the current colors and mixed for some excellent results and options.

The way PSP handles color, is it does basic alpha blending, not a full replacement, when flooding an image.
