# Figma Draw adds erasing and drag-to-fill to vector editing

By Steven Van · 2026-04-29

Both work without switching tools; press Shift+E in vector edit mode or Draw mode to grab the eraser.

Figma Draw now lets you erase and drag-to-fill directly in vector editing, without switching tools. You can erase vector paths on the canvas to clean up stray marks or reshape existing artwork, and pick a color or gradient to drag-fill or recolor multiple regions at once. Press Shift+E to switch to the eraser in vector edit mode or Draw mode; the existing Shift+E shortcut for the Prototype tab in Design mode is unchanged.
