=TITLE starting
=TITLE Starting Paint
=KEYWORD Starting
 To start Paint, choose the Paint menu item from
 FileView's Applications menu.

 The Paint program displays a drawing window that is
 bordered by a tool palette. The minimum size for a
 paint picture is 10 pixels x 10 pixels. Depending on
 the layout of your picture, the total picture size may
 be up to 2550 pixels x 3300 pixels or 3300 pixels x
 2550 pixels.

 The longest side of your picture may be up to 3300
 pixels. The shortest side may be up to 2550 pixels.

 The Paint window frames a portion of the canvas.
 Horizontal and vertical scroll bars indicate the
 percentage of the canvas displayed in the Paint window.

=INCLUDE Overview paint_drawing_sec using_patterns
 Paint is a bitmap graphics program, which means that it
 treats pictures as a collection of dots called pixels.
 Different drawing tools, such as the paintbrush (the
 default tool), the pencil, and the text tool, edit the
 color of the pixels to either the foreground color or
 the background color to create a pattern.

 Because the Paint canvas has so many pixels in every
 square inch, you do not actually see patterns of dots.
 Instead you see a collection of lines, shapes, and
 text.

 You can begin to understand Paint by modifying a sample
 picture called the Clock Tower. To display the Clock
 Tower:

 1. Choose the Open... menu item from the File menu.

 2. Type the file name DECW$EXAMPLES:CLOCK.DDIF in the
    Open... menu Selection entry field.

 3. Click on the OK button.

 Paint displays the Clock Tower picture. You can use
 the Clock Tower to practice selecting tools and to
 experiment with some of the Paint menu items.

=TITLE Using_tools
=TITLE Using the Paint Tools
=KEYWORD Tools
 The tool palette offers a variety of art tools and
 basic shapes. You can work with a paintbrush, a pencil,
 a can of spray paint, or a paint bucket.

 When you first start Paint the paintbrush tool is
 highlighted, which indicates the current default.
 Only one tool on the tool palette is active at a time
 and that tool remains active until you make another
 selection. If you make a mistake, choose the Undo menu
 item from the Edit menu.

 To use another tool:

 1. Place the pointer in the tool palette, position it
    on a different tool, and click MB1.

 2. Move the pointer into the drawing window and click
    MB1.

    The new tool is now active in the window.

=TITLE paint_choosing
=TITLE Choosing Menu Items
=KEYWORD Menus Options
 Paint offers a wide variety of drawing options. Using
 the menu items in the Paint menus, you can create
 special effects with a painting.

 For example, the Invert menu item on the Edit menu
 creates a negative image of the selected portion of a
 painting. The Paint program can reverse the tones of
 the selected portion of the painting, switching the
 foreground color and the background color.

=TITLE paint_saving
=TITLE Saving a Painting
=KEYWORD Saving
 You can save both newly created paintings or paintings
 that you are revising.

 To save a new painting:

 1. Choose the Save As... menu item from the File menu.
    A dialog box appears.

 2. Type a file name using the format filename.IMG.

 3. Click on the OK button. Your painting will be saved
    and you will be able to retrieve and edit it at a
    later time.

    To save a revised painting that already has a file
    name, choose the Save menu item from the File menu.
    Paint will save the new version of your painting.

=TITLE paint_printing
=TITLE Printing a Painting
=KEYWORD Printing
 To print a painting, choose either the Print or
 Print... menu items from the File menu.

 The Print menu item sends the painting to the default
 printer.

 The Print... menu item displays the Print Widget dialog
 box.

 Paint supports output to both PostScript and sixel
 printers. When printing on an LA50 printer, set an
 aspect ratio of 2:1. All other printers have a 1:1
 ratio.

=TITLE paint_erasing
=TITLE Erasing
=KEYWORD Erasing
 There are several ways to erase in Paint:

 -  Use the eraser tool.

 -  Use the selection box tool or the scissors tool to
    select the area to be erased. Then, choose the Clear
    menu item from the Edit menu.

 -  Choose the Select All menu item from the Edit menu
    and select the visible portion of the screen. Then
    choose Clear from the Edit menu.

    recover from the last Paint operation.

=TITLE grid
=TITLE Using the Grid Option
=KEYWORD Grid
 If you want to line up a series of shapes or draw
 shapes equidistant to each other, choose Grid On from
 the Options menu.

 The Grid On option superimposes a horizontal and
 vertical pattern of dots on the drawing window and
 serves as a guide that does not become part of your
 picture.

 The Grid On option is an excellent tool to use for
 drawing geometric figures because it causes lines to
 "snap in place" on the dots.

=TITLE Opaq_trans
=TITLE Using the Opaque and Transparent Options
=KEYWORD Opaque Transparent
 Most geometric shapes or figures are opaque; you cannot
 see objects that are covered by the shape or figure.

 Paint allows you to change the state of a figure or
 shape to allow you to see objects behind it. To do
 this:

 1. Move the pointer to the Options menu.

 2. Choose the Transparent menu item. Release MB1.

 Figures and shapes that you create will now become
 transparent. By default, all figures and shapes are
 opaque. A shaded button to the left of either option
 indicates that it is the option in effect. You can use
 the Opaque or Transparent options for all items.

=TITLE paint_drawing_sec
=TITLE Drawing Lines and Shapes
=KEYWORD Drawing Lines Shapes
 The bottom half of the tool palette contains a
 collection of line and shape tools that you use in
 a similar way. Whenever you draw a straight line or
 a shape, the point where you press MB1 becomes its
 reference point.

 You can stretch and swing the line or shape from the
 reference point by dragging the pointer. When the shape
 is correct, anchor it in place by releasing MB1. For
 example, to draw a rectangle:

 1. Click on the rectangle tool.

 2. Position the pointer in the drawing window where you
    want one corner of the rectangle to be. Press MB1
    and drag the pointer diagonally across the drawing
    surface until the rectangle has the desired width
    and height.

 3. Release MB1 to anchor the shape.

 If you want to line up a series of shapes or draw them
 equidistant to each other, choose the Grid On menu item
 from the Options menu. Choose the Grid Off menu item
 from the Options menu to remove the grid pattern.

 can be striped, speckled, woven, or dotted.

 The line and shape tools, the spray can tool, and the
 paintbrush tool can paint patterned lines and borders.
 To use patterned lines:

 1. Choose the Patterns... menu item from the Options
    menu. The Patterns palette is displayed.

 2. Click on the border pattern button (the button
    positioned in the upper, left-hand corner of the
    Patterns palette).

=TITLE center_patterns
=TITLE Filling Shapes with Patterns
=KEYWORD Filling
 To fill shapes with patterned centers:

 1. Choose the Patterns... menu item from the Options
    menu.

 2. Click on the Fill pattern button (the button
    positioned in the upper, right-hand corner of the
    Patterns palette).

 3. Click on any pattern on the palette. The new pattern
    is displayed in the Fill button.

 4. Click on the OK button.

 5. Click on any tool you want to use. The geometric
    shape tools and the paint bucket tool use the
    current fill pattern.

 6. After positioning the pointer in the drawing window,
    drag the pointer to create a shape with a patterned
    center.

    If you are using the paint bucket tool, position
    the pointer inside an enclosed shape. Any opening
    in the border causes the paint to spill out onto the
    canvas.

 You can reverse filling a shape by choosing Undo Flood
 from the Edit menu. Filling only works on the visible
 part of the canvas.

=TITLE pattern_creating
=TITLE Creating Paint Patterns
=KEYWORD Patterns
 You can create your own patterns and store them on the
 pattern palette during a Paint session. You create your
 own pattern from any of the patterns on the palette;
 however, you cannot use the solid foreground, solid
 background, and none patterns.

 To create your own pattern:

 1. Decide whether you want a border pattern or a fill
    pattern, and then click on the appropriate button on
    the Pattern palette.

 2. Choose a pattern from the palette that is similar
    to the pattern you want to create and click on it.
    Paint also provides a few blank patterns at the end
    of the palette that you can customize.

 3. Choose the Edit Pattern... menu item from the
    Options menu. Paint displays a dialog box.

    The dialog box contains two boxes. In the left-hand
    box you see the pattern you chose from the palette.
    In the right-hand box you see the same pattern
    magnified.

 4. In the Edit Pattern dialog box, edit the magnified
    version of the pattern to create the design you
    want.

    Use the pencil to draw over pixels or click
    on individual pixels. The pencil tool turns a
    background pixel to the foreground color and a
    foreground pixel to the background color. If you
    drag MB1 to edit a pattern, all pixels drawn over
    assume the color of the first pixel clicked on.

 5. Click on the OK button. The edited pattern is
    available on the Pattern palette for the rest of
    the session, replacing the original pattern. The
    original pattern cannot be restored unless you edit
    the pattern back to its original form.

=TITLE paint_paintbrush
=TITLE Using the Paintbrush
=KEYWORD Paintbrush
 The paintbrush tool applies paint along the path of the
 pointer. The paintbrush is the default tool.

 Initially, the paintbrush has a solid stroke, but you
 can choose a patterned stroke by changing the outline
 pattern on the Patterns palette.

 To shape the tip of the paintbrush:

 1. Click on the paintbrush tool.

 2. Choose the Brushes... menu item from the Options
    menu. Paint displays a dialog box.
