Description samuellopezrosado50 2021-02-02 11:51:51 UTC
SUMMARY
When I use the fill tool in Krita, instead of coloring inside the lines it fills the entire page and covers what has been drawn.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make a full square or any not open shape.
2. Select another color
3. Use the fill option inside of the square or shape.

OBSERVED RESULT
The entire layer fills with color

EXPECTED RESULT
The one that usually happens, the fill option fills the shape and nothing else

This sounds very much like a user support question than the actual bug.

Go to the tool options dock (bottom right corner by default). I believe that either:
1. your "threshold" is too big, so that the tool can go trough nearly any color (drop it down to 1)
2. "fill entire selection" is on (fills selected area without taking colors to account)
3. you're on a different layer, and either use "fast mode", or sample: "current layer".

I'm marking it as "not a bug" for now. For the future I would suggest to ask at krita-artists.org first, as this is a much better place to seek help with a program, and you post a bug report only when others there confirm it's the actual issue with krita.
