SYMPTOMS

If you draw a filled rectangle in Paint, select it, and then skew it, the result
may be confusing. The fill color may seem to invade the drawing.

The same color is used to specify both the fill color and the transparent color
for the image. You did not select the appropriate background color for the image
before skewing the rectangle.

RESOLUTION

Select the correct background color before stretching or skewing the rectangle.

MORE INFORMATION
