Basically, I'm reporting that my first test with the PCadd 6.1 paint bucket tool shows that it is better than 6.0.9, but still not nearly as good (for this specific application) as the WT Flood Tool or the PCadd 2000 paint bucket tool. I understand that a lot of improvements have been made to the underlying mechanics and I hope this little comparison will be useful.

Too many steps... what version are you using? PCD6.10 , in all my test and production files the paint bucket yields a single polygon, even for very complex regions where 'holes' are punched in the primary area. any insights are appreciated.
