Paint Shop Pro 7 Draw Tools |
| |
The
Draw and Preset Shapes tools can be used in either
vector or raster mode. Using these two tools, you can
create just about any outlined graphic you want with
little effort.
Draw Tool
The draw tool is used to create straight lines, bezier
curves, freehand lines and point to point lines. This
tool can be set to either vector or raster. Since vector
graphics are adjustable, I recommend you alway create
lines with the vector option selected.
The following graphic illustrates the Tool Options
palette for the Draw tool: |
 |
The Type box allows you to select
the type of line you want to draw.
The Width box allows you to enter the width of the line.
The Line style is just that, the style of the line. This
tool comes with numerous preset line styles from dashed
or dotted lines to lines with arrows at each end. You
can even create your own custom line styles.
Antialias - Check this box to antialias your
lines. If you are creating a line in any shape other
than a straight line, you will probably want to have
antialias checked. The following graphic illustrates a
freehand line drawn with antialias on (left) and
antialias off (right): |
 |
Vector - Check this box to
create your line as vector. This has the advantage of
being able to edit the line you have drawn instead of
starting over if you don't like the results.
Close Path - When this box is selected, the start
and end points of your line will be connected when you
release the mouse, assuming that your line is curved in
some way so that the ends can connect.
The second tab on the Tool Options palette contains
three other settings for the draw tool: |
 |
|
Join - The Join choices are Miter, Round and Bevel.
These options only apply to the Point to Point draw
tool. They determine the shape of the join where two
segments of the line meet. The following graphic
illustrates the Miter (left), Round (middle) and Bevel
(right) joins on a point to point line. |

|
Miter limit - This control
again, applies only to the Point to Point line, and is
active only if a Mitered Join is used. This setting
determines the maximum value allowed for the Miter
length to the line width. The Miter length is defined as
the length in pixels from the inside edge of the join to
the outer point. If the ratio is less than the Miter
Limit, the result is a normal Mitered Join. If the ratio
exceeds the Miter Limit, the tip of the Miter is cut off
at the limit, giving something that resembles a Bevel
Join. The highest allowable Miter Limit is 30. It is
best to keep the Miter Limit at the high end, otherewise
some of your Mitered Joins may be truncated.
