To replace one color with another by selecting a color on the image:
1.
Select the Replace Color tool from its pop-up menu.
2.
In the From box in the Property inspector, click Image.
3.
Click the To color well in the Property inspector to select the color probe, then select a
color from the pop-up menu.
4.
Set the other stroke attributes in the Property inspector:
Size
sets the size of the brush tip.
Shape
sets a round or square brush tip shape.
Tolerance
determines the range of colors to replace (0 replaces only the To color; 255
replaces all colors similar to the To color).
Strength
determines how much of the Change color is replaced.
Colorize
replaces the From color with the To color. Deselect Colorize to tint the From
color with the To color, leaving some of the From color intact.
5.
Using the tool, click down on a section of the bitmap image that contains the color you
want to replace. Without lifting the tool, continue to brush across the image with it. The
color that you clicked down on when you initiated the brushing action will be replaced by
the color you've specified in the To color well.
Cropping a selected bitmap
You can isolate a single bitmap object in a Fireworks document and crop only that bitmap
object, leaving other objects on the canvas intact.
To crop a bitmap image without affecting other objects in the document:
1.
Select a bitmap object by clicking the object on the canvas or by clicking its thumbnail in
the Layers panel, or draw a selection marquee using a bitmap selection tool.
2.
Select Edit > Crop Selected Bitmap.
The crop handles appear around the entire selected bitmap or around the selection
marquee, if you drew one in step 1.
