Fill Path With Colour in Photoshop
ď‚— In Photoshop a path created using pen tool does not
become an image element till you performed stroke or fill it up.
ď‚— The Fill Path command fills a path by pixels using a
specified color, a fill layer or a state of the image.
Fill Path Settings Fill a path with the current fill path settings: Select the path in the paths panel Click the Fill Path button of the paths panel
Fill a Path and Specify Option: 1. Select the path in the Paths panel. 2. Fill the Path: ďƒ˜ ALT-click (Windows) the Fill Path button at the bottom of the Paths panel. ďƒ˜ ALT-drag (Windows) the path to the Fill Path button.
ďƒ˜ Choose to fill path from the paths panel menu. If the
selected path is a path component, then this command changes to fill sub-path.
3. Choose the contents for the fill. 4. Specify opacity for the fill. Use a low percentage to make the fill more transparent. A setting of 100% makes the fill opaque.
5. To fill choose a blending mode. ď‚— The Mode list includes a Clear mode that helps you to
erase the transparency.
ď‚— You must be working in a layer section other than the
background to apply this option.
6. Choose Preserve Transparency to limit the fill to layer the areas that hold pixels. 7. Select a Rendering option: Feather Radius ďƒ˜ Defines how far inside and outside the border selection the feather edge extends. Enter a value in pixels.
Anti-aliased ďƒ˜ Creates a finer transition in the pixels in the selection and the around pixels by partially filling the edge pixels of the selection.
Stroke Paths With Color

border.
The Stroke path allows you to create a paint stroke that
follows any path.

optionsSelect the path in the Paths panel.
ďƒ˜ Click the Stroke Path button which is at the bottom of
the Paths panel. Every click of the Stroke Path button builds up the opacity of the stroke and, depending upon the brush options, makes it look much thicker.

button.

selected path is a path component, then this command changes to Stroke Sub-path.
4. In the Stroke Path dialog box, choose a tool if you did not select 1 in step 2. To simulate the hand-painted strokes, select Simulate Pressure option. Or deselect this option to create the more linear, even strokes. 5. Click OK.
