AlphaFill

// Gradient fill the alpha channel with fully transparent on the left to fully opaque on the right

CastAlpha

// Flood fill transparency from the top-left of the image

CastAlphaRange

// Reduce number of alpha values to 4 (i.e. 2-bit alpha)

CastColor

// Perform a red flood fill starting at 0,0 (with a tolerance of 10)
