Where is the eraser tool?

GraphicsGale does not have the eraser tool.
All you have to do is painting a canvas with a background color.

GraphicsGale treats one of colors as transparent area.
Layers and frames can have their transparent color.

If a transparent color of a layer is set, the area filled with that
color is transparent and its under layers are visible.

A transparent color of a frame is applied as a transparent color of an
image file which supports transparency such as a GIF.




Why is a transparent color invalidated after a selected image is fixed?

If an image has an alpha-channel, a transparent color of a layer is invalidated.
If you don't need an alpha-channel, invalidate an alpha-channel with any one of the following ways.
  • Click Delete Alpha Channel in Image menu.
  • Invalidate an alpha-channel button. In this way, an alpha-channel is invalidated but is not deleted.
