Yeah, it was kind of a crappy paintbrush icon. I've changed it now.

That was Don's comment as well. I have just modified this  so as you mouse over 
the color bar a gray line is drawn where you are mousing and the range value is 
shown below. A single click when in fill mode will set the color at the slot.  

Also - when you have a selected breakpoint and you are in fill mode then any 
change in the color chooser at the bottom will be applied automatically to the 
breakpoint slot.

Also - I show a color swatch next to the fill mode button to show what is the 
currently selected color.
