Description:

Corel Painter X offers a broad range of tools and features that inspire creativity, increase performance, and further extend compatibility with other industry-standard tools and applications. It delivers an impressive array of new features that provide unprecedented power to replicate traditional art media — right down to the individual bristles on the brush.

  • New Composition Tools — New composition tools help artists and photographers visually arrange a blank canvas prior to sketching or painting, or create an aesthetically pleasing composition from a photo using the Divine Proportion tool and the Rule of Thirds. Used throughout history by artists, designers, and architects alike, the Divine Proportion will help you compose your paintings like the masters! Similarly, professional photographers often use the Rule of Thirds to compose their photographs.

    • The Underpainting palette includes color schemes based on various artistic styles, such as Impressionist, Classical, Modern, Watercolor, Sketchbook, and Chalk Drawing. You can also match your Underpainting's palette to that of any open image
    • The Auto-Painting Palette transforms a photograph into a painting by automatically applying brushstrokes while intelligently changing stroke size and direction using new Smart StrokeTM technology.
  • New Downloadable Training Videos — Get up and running quickly with the new training videos by Painter Master Jeremy Sutton!
  • New Universal Mixer palette — For multicolor selection, the new Universal Mixer palette gives you better control over color blending between the Mixer palette and the canvas. See it in action.

  • Enhanced Adobe Photoshop support — With improved layer grouping and combining, and enhanced support for layer merge modes, artists can more efficiently work between Corel Painter X and Adobe Photoshop.
  • Enhanced Wacom Support — Artists can use the entire Wacom product line–including the Cintiq 21 UX interactive pen display, the Intuos®3 pen tablet, and the Wacom 6D Art Pen.
  • New Printed User Guide — Full and Upgrade customers receive a color printed User Guide which provides useful reference information and fast solutions. Also includes a 16-page art gallery.
  • New Match Palette effect — The new Match Palette effect lets you match the color and intensity between two images. Just open an image that features your desired color scheme and use the Match Palette effect to bring the desired color scheme to the image you want to change.
  • Windows Vista Support — Corel Painter X is compatible with Microsoft's latest operating system - Windows Vista.
  • Intel-based Mac Support — With support for Universal binary specifications, Corel Painter X is optimized for use on Intel-based Mac computers.
