3.14. Fill with FG Color

The Fill with FG Color command fills the image's selection with the solid color shown in the foreground part of the Color Area of the Toolbox. (The color is also shown to the left of the menu entry.) If some areas of the image are only partially selected (for example, as a result of feathering the selection), they are filled in proportion to how much they are selected.

[Note] Note

Please note that if the image has no selection, the whole active layer is filled.
