Using Flood All to apply a single color

You can apply a single color to the entire texture without painting individual strokes.

To use Flood All to apply a single color

1. In the Flood settings of the 3D Paint Tool settings, click the Color box and select a pale green color from the Color Chooser.
2. Set the Flood setting to All and then click on the Flood Paint button.

   The Flood Color overwrites all other painting you’ve done. You can also use Flood to erase painting.

3. In the Flood settings, click the Flood Erase button.

   Maya eliminates all brush strokes, leaving you with the last saved version of the texture. (To save the texture, click the Save Textures button in the File Textures section.)
