Use the Eraser tool to drag over a section of artwork on the Stage to erase it. Click the Eraser Mode modifier and select from the following list of erasing modes to specify how the area will be affected:
- Erase Normal: Erases strokes and fills on the same layer.
- Erase Fills: Erases only fills; strokes are not affected.
- Erase Lines: Erases only strokes; fills are not affected.

To use the Eraser tool, follow these steps:
- Click the Eraser Shape modifier in the Tools panel and select an eraser shape and size. Make sure that the Faucet modifier is not selected.
- Drag your cursor on the Stage in the desired location.
- To remove stroke segments or filled areas, select the Eraser tool and then click the Faucet modifier. Click the stroke segment or filled area to delete.
