Brush options<br />
Painting, Drawing, and Text 129<br />
The Brush Options dialog, accessible from the context toolbar's Brush option,<br />
lets you customize a brush or define properties for a new one. As you vary the<br />
settings, you can see the effect of each change in the preview window.<br />
Painting using pen tablets<br />
Brush strokes can be applied directly to the page by using your mouse or, if<br />
available, a pen tablet; the latter method is ideally suited for applying pressuresensitive<br />
strokes to your project. <strong>PhotoPlus</strong> supports pressure sensitivity, with<br />
tablet calibration and key assignment possible directly from within the program<br />
(via Pressure Studio).<br />
Stamping and spraying pictures<br />
The Picture Brush Tool works like a custom<br />
brush that sprays a series of pre-defined or custom<br />
images at regular intervals as you drag. Used in<br />
conjunction with the Brush Tip tab you can select<br />
from a variety of picture brushes in different<br />
categories, and you can import Paint Shop Pro<br />
"picture tubes".<br />
You can use the tool either to "stamp" single images at specific points or lay out a<br />
continuous stream of repeating pictures as in the letter "S" on the left.<br />
The Picture Brush tool works on Background and standard layers, but not on<br />
text layers or shape layers.
