Freehand pixel drawing. Paints with the active color. Supports adjustable brush size (1px to 16px) and opacity. Hold Shift while drawing to snap your strokes to straight lines.

Paints round, antialiased strokes with transparent edge pixels. Choose a size from 1px to 32px, adjust opacity, and use Hardness to control how quickly the stroke fades toward its edge. At 1px and 2px there are not enough pixels to form a visibly round fade, so those sizes behave much like a lower-opacity Pencil; use 3px or larger when you want a distinct soft edge.

Removes pixels from the active layer. Shares the hard-edged size slider (1px to 16px). You can lower the opacity for a softer erase effect or for gradient cleanup work.

Fills connected pixels of a matching color with your active color. If a selection is active, the fill area is constrained inside the selection boundaries.

A unified color and area selection tool. Click a color on the canvas to select all matching pixels, or click and drag to draw a rectangular marquee. Set the Tolerance in its settings block to select near matches.

Samples any existing pixel color from the canvas. Click on a pixel to capture its exact RGBA color and automatically set it as the active drawing color.

Draws straight pixel lines on the active layer. Hold Shift to constrain the line angles to perfect 45-degree or 90-degree steps.

Draws outline rectangles on the active layer. The border thickness is driven by the current brush size settings.

Draws outline circles or ellipses on the active layer. Hold Shift while dragging to lock the proportions into a perfect circle.

Selects custom rectangular areas. Limits edits to the selected pixels. Hold Shift-drag to add areas, or Alt-drag to subtract areas.

Moves elements around. Dragging on the canvas shifts the active layer. You can enable Move all layers together or Apply move to every frame in its flyout options when making global shifts.
