(see also: Bitmap Menu and Toolbar)
The Paintbrush tool lets you paint brushstrokes onto a bitmap.
The Paintbrush Tool in DesignCentral has two tabs:
- The Brushes tab (First tab) lets you select the shape and size of the brush. (See Changing the Brush for more information.)
- The Brush Options tab (second tab) determines the percentage of each stroke that will be added to a bitmap image.
The Brush Options tab lets you adjust the following parameter:
| Opacity | Specifies the percentage of the color to be added with each pass of the brush. Lower numbers will create transparent strokes. |
To use the Paintbrush tool:
- Select the bitmap you want to edit.
- From the Bitmap Edit toolbar, select the Paintbrush tool.
- From the Brushes tab, select a brush tip.
- From the Swatch Table, select the foreground color you want to paint with.
- Click and drag the brush across the bitmap.
Use Undo to remove brushstroke errors.
