The updated interface in Corel Painter 6 significantly reorganizes and restructures Painter's many palettes. With the new interface, users can now tailor collapsible palettes to precisely meet their needs and control the amount of onscreen information. The new interface merges all palettes into a single master Brush Control palette, allowing users to access as many palettes as needed within an organized workspace. Industry-Standard Layers Users can now make selections on layers, move between layers to use a current selection, and use a selection on a layer to cut or copy and element from one layer and paste it to another. Layers have transparency masks that allow all mark-making tools to draw into it, including texture tools.
Layers contain all standard compositing and grouping methods for interacting with layers beneath.
Text on a Curve Corel Painter 6 has enhanced Dynamic Text, which lets users reshape the baseline by moving Bezier curve handles. Users can insert, edit, tilt, rotate, stretch, scale, and type works directly on a curve, all with automatic configurable drop shadows. More Realistic Airbrushes When held in a single position with flow control on, a real airbrush will continue to spray, creating an ever-enlarging deposit of ink or paint. Corel Painter 6 airbrushes can also take advantage of Wacom's Intuos technology to generate even more realistic techniques. Interactive Image Hose Corel Painter 6 lets users spray images in real-time on the canvas with interactive rotation and scaling based on the bearing, tilt and pressure of your hand.
