Look at [1] for the details on > flood fill. I think you may have misunderstood the request - either that, or I did. From the description of "flood fill", what it does is replace everything within a certain distance of a specified point with a specified color. That maps to "fill a specified region with a specified color", if the region is radius-based. What I understand the request to be is for a way to replace everything *outside of* a specified region with a specified color, where the region is *not* necessarily radius-based but may potentially be freeform. If I needed to do that, what I'd probably wind up doing is to select the desired region, copy it, paste it into an empty image, and adjust its position and the size of the image to suit. I don't know of any tool to automate the process to any meaningful degree. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
