Flood Fill

The Flood Fill operation allows for the filling of outlined areas in a graphic plane. The fill operation is triggered by a left or right mouse click in the main image window of ImageWorks. The fill operation is affected by the Clear mode buttons.

The fill operation is bounded by any ``eight connected'' line. That is, the fill operation will not expand diagonally (therefore the fill will not pass through diagonal holes).

The Trace & Close, and Polygon operations are specially designed to create areas guaranteed to contain fill operations.

The flood fill mode will be terminated after a left mouse click, but will persist after a right click.
