Tip #5: Learn the Recolor Methods
When using Procreate, there will be times where you will need to recolor a single shape or an entire layer. The ColorDrop technique is great for recoloring a few shapes, while the Alpha Lock Fill Layer method works great for recoloring an entire layer.

To use the ColorDrop method, select the layer that you’re working with and click and drag the color circle to the shape you’d like to recolor. The new hue will fill in the boundaries of your shape, like seen above. This method only works if your illustration is completely closed off; using this technique on an open shape will fill the entire layer with the selected hue.

When working with a more complex composition, using the Alpha Lock Fill Layer command is a much quicker way to go. Instead of dragging the ColorDrop onto each line, shape, or letter, you can change the entire layer’s colors in one fell swoop.

Go to the layer you’d like to edit, then click on its thumbnail and select Alpha Lock. Head back to the color menu and activate a new swatch. Hit the layer’s thumbnail again and choose Fill Layer. Changing the colors in your illustration has never been easier.
