Tool Preview
This box appears when
you choose any tool,
except Scissors or Eraser. It shows the
current Color, Pattern, or Stamp set
and how solid each is. The clearer the
checkerboard shows, the more see-
through your tool will be.
Transparency Control
Use this slider to adjust
how solid or see-through
your tool will be. You can
also use this control with
Text and one of the Eraser options.
Stamp Palette
Click the up and down arrows to see
all the stamps you can use. Use the
Transparency slider with stamps to
change how see-through they are. You
can even fill your words with stamps.
Picture Controls
The Flip, Rotate, and Scale controls
work on your current selection. Click
Flip to turn your selection left to right.
Move the green knob around the circle
to rotate your selection. Slide the green
knob on the Scale tool to make your
selection bigger or smaller. If you
don’t have a special area
selected,
these tools
work on
your whole
picture.
