The weave displays in the Preview
window.
2 Click the Three-Dimensional
Weave icon to show a three-
dimensional weave.
For most weaves, you won’t see a
change in the preview until you
adjust the scale and thickness
values.
3 Adjust the horizontal and vertical
scale sliders to increase the scale,
thus enlarging the weave.
4 Adjust the horizontal and vertical
thickness sliders to reduce the
thickness.
You should begin to see a change
in the weave preview.
Note
•
Thickness sliders affect the three-
dimensional display. When you select a
two-dimensional display, the thickness
sliders have no effect.
Editing Weave Colors
Each weave uses its own Color Set.
You can display the Color Set used for
a weave, change the colors in the set,
and apply them to the weave.
Remember that you can open several
palettes and rearrange them to make it
easier to see the controls you need.
For more information about Color
Sets, see “Using Color Sets” on
page 85.
To display the color set for a
weave:
1 On the Weaves palette, choose a
weave from the Weave selector.
2 Click the palette menu arrow, and
choose Get Color Set.
The Color Set for the selected
weave appears.
To change weave colors:

Colors palette or a color set, or

We av es to display the Weaves
palette.
3 Hold down Option (Mac OS) or
Alt (Windows), and double-click
the color swatch on the weave
Color Set that you want to replace.

one.
4 Click the palette menu arrow, and
choose Put Color Set.
The Preview window shows the
weave with the new colors. If you
fill an image with the weave
pattern, Corel Painter now uses the
new color set.
Saving Weaves

color of a weave, you can save your
changes as a new weave.

palette menu arrow and choose
