Corel Painter 305
4 Adjust any of the following pattern
properties:
• For Brick, use the Brick Width
and Brick Height sliders to
adjust the size of the bricks.
• For the other built-in tile
shapes, use the Angle and Scale
sliders to adjust the tile orienta-
tion and size.
• For Original Luminance,
Paper, and channel or layer
mask, use the Threshold slider
to draw the line between
“light” and “dark.” Everything
above the Threshold value
becomes tiles, and everything
below becomes grout.
5 Adjust the Thickness slider to
control the width of the cracks
between tiles (grout lines).
6 Adjust the Blur Radius slider to set
the sampling radius for blurring
the crack or grout color. Increasing
the Blur Radius adds more
neighboring colors to the crack
pixels in each pass.
7 Blur Passes sets the number of
times the crack pixels are blurred.
More passes mix more tile color
into the cracks. Blurring occurs
only when Blur Passes is greater
than zero.
Blurring changes the grout appearance.
If you want grout to show between
the tiles, enable the Use Grout
check box.
8 Click the Grout color chip, and
choose a grout color from the
Color Picker.
Grid Paper
The Grid Paper effect adds a grid of
horizontal lines, vertical lines,
rectangles, or dots to an image.
Grid paper becomes part of the image.
Unlike the Grid Overlay, which is a
transparent layer that floats above
your image as a reference, Grid Paper
becomes part of your image.
To apply grid paper:
1 Select a layer or area of the canvas.
If you want to apply the effect to
the entire image, make sure there
are no selections.
2 Choose Effects menu > Esoterica
> Grid Paper.
