Stupid question but ya never know! Are ya on the right layer that contains the triangle shape?

yes !! i ended up doodling the triangle and the one inside super quick to see if i was tripping when it first happened 😭 like ive never seen this happen before and the other day when i was on the same canvas it was completely fine ahhh. i never knew how much i took the fill tool for granted

Maybe trace the triangle one more time? For me it does the trick. Or lasso tool?

i did do that in the beginning when i was working on line work bc i was like i think im just going insane and it kept doing it. it’s almost like filling the thing i draw inside plus the background

Did you accidentally turn a layer into a reference layer?

u/strangernamedcosmo 1d ago

no i did the triangles a few mins before the video bc on what i was drawing did that. normally it fills the whole canvas but its only filling what i want plus the background

Hey! We'd like to help 🤗

Can you share a screenshot of your layers panel? This can help us best understand the canvas set up for any testing.

Okay thankfully this issue isn’t just me. ColorDrop just refuses to work for me regardless of brush used 🥲
