Here, you have four tools and a color palette to work with. These tools are:
- The Undo tool which allows you to revert to your previously completed step from your current step.
- The Brush tool which allows you to paint the walls yourself by moving the brush over the portion of the walls you want to paint.
- The Smart Fill tool which also allows you to paint the walls yourself, but it does this by allowing you to just touch the walls and it will paint them for you.
- The Reset button which allows you to return to the original form of your image.
