Changing Weave Display
Corel Painter can display a weave as
two-dimensional or show the
interwoven threads three-
dimensionally, complete with
shadows.
A weave can appear differently when displayed
either as two-dimensional or three-
dimensional.
To change how a weave is
displayed:
1 Choose Window menu > Show
Wea ve s to display the Weaves
palette.
2 Click the Two-Dimensional Weave
or the Three-Dimensional
Weave icon.
The button changes to show either
a two-dimensional (Blocks) or
three-dimensional (Fibers) weave.
Note
Depending on which weave is
selected, you might or might not see a
change in the Preview window. For
different two- and three-dimensional
effects, you can adjust the scaling and
thickness sliders at the bottom of the
Weaves palette.
Adjusting Scaling and
Thickness
The four sliders at the bottom of the
Weaves palette control the thickness of
threads and the spacing between
them. The top two sliders control
horizontal dimensions; the bottom
two control vertical dimensions. By
adjusting these sliders, you can create
a wide variety of weaves with any one
of the patterns supplied.
To adjust scaling and thickness:
1 On the Weaves palette, choose a
weave from the Weave selector.
