categories (watercolor, charcoal, paint, etc.). Stamp and Spray Picture
Brush effects and stamps. PhotoPlus lets you create your own category
and brush tips! Apply different colors, levels of transparency, blend
modes, to any brush, all at vary ing flow rates. Built-in support for
most pressure-sensitive graphics tablets.
• Selection Power—by Brush!
Create selection areas defined by your laid-down brush strokes. Use
Effect, Stamp, and Media brushes for more creative selection areas;
your brush's characteristics (size, spacing, opacity) being honoured
along with the stroke's pressure sensitivity.
• Freehand and Bézier Curve and Shape Drawing
Powerful vector-drawing tools let you produce any shape under the
sun with controllable, connectable, editable line segments.
• Editable QuickShapes
Easy to create, easy to change! Simply drag sliders to morph chevrons,
hearts, badges, teardrops, moons, zigzags, and many more... apply
layer effects and gradient fills... and edit any shape at any time. Create
multiple shapes on a single layer—add, subtract, intersect, or exclude
with previous shapes for frames, cutouts and custom contours. Draw
directly as a Shape layer or as a filled bitmap on a raster layer.
• Pressure Studio for Pen Tablets
Calibrate and test your tablet's input devices, switch on/off global
pressure input, and even set up function keys, rings, wheels, and
sliders from within PhotoPlus—all from a single studio! Appropriate
brushes are now pressure-sensitive by default! For Wacom Intuos4®
users, take advantage of OLED touch-sensitive shortcuts, where
illuminated PhotoPlus tool icons show in your tablet's Functions area.

• Editable Text
Add formatted color text directly onto your image, reposition and
scale it by dragging. Text layers keep the contents separate so you can
go back and edit selected areas of text or adjust formatting (color,
transparency, etc.) at any time!
