Using the eraser tool
The eraser tool changes pixels in the image as you
drag through them. If you’re working in the
background, or in any other layer with Preserve
Transparency on, the pixels change to the
background color (see “Choosing the foreground
and background colors” on page 214). Otherwise,
transparency replaces the color. You can also use
the eraser to return the affected area to a state
selected in the History palette.
Erasing pixels from layer exposes underlying layer.
To use the eraser tool:
1 Double-click the eraser tool to display its
Options palette.
2 Choose the tool type you want to use as an
eraser—paintbrush, airbrush, pencil, or block.
To cycle through the eraser tool types,
Alt-click (Windows) or Option-click
(Mac OS) the eraser tool, or hold down Shift
and press E on the keyboard.
3 Specify the opacity, fade-out rate, and stylus
options as explained in “Using the Options palette
for painting and editing tools” on page 203.
4
Select a brush size as described in “Using the
Brushes palette” on page 200.
Note: When using the paintbrush option, select Wet
Edges to erase with a watercolor effect. This option
causes the erased effect to build up along the edges of
the brush stroke.
5 To erase to a saved state or snapshot of the
image, select Erase to History (see “Painting with a
state or snapshot of the image” on page 172).
To use the eraser tool in Erase to History
mode, hold down Alt (Windows) or
Option (Mac OS) as you drag in the image.
6 Drag through the area you want to erase.
Using the Auto Erase option
The Auto Erase option for the pencil tool ( )
lets you paint the background color over areas
containing the foreground color.
To use the Auto Erase option:

background colors” on page 214.
2
Select and double-click the pencil tool to display
its Options palette.

Select Auto Erase.

Drag over the image.
If you begin dragging over the foreground color,
the area is erased to the background color. If you
begin dragging from an area that doesn’t contain
the foreground color, the area is painted with the
foreground color.
