# Adjusting the Softness

The softness value for the fill determines the amount of colour diffusion applied at the edges of the fill. This value can be adjusted to modify the transition between the filled and unfilled areas. A softness value of 100% produces the greatest amount of diffusion. A softness value of 0% produces a filled area with well-defined edges.
