If you are using the Layer Adjuster tool, you can switch to the Shape Selection tool by

double-clicking a shape.

Modifying shape outlines and fills

You can choose the color, opacity, and width of the path outlining the shape, which is also known as a

stroke. You can also control the way line ends are drawn and joined. In addition, you can apply a fill to a

shape by choosing the color and opacity of the fill.

Stroke and fill attributes apply to both open and closed shapes. Before filling an open shape, Corel Painter

closes the shape by connecting the endpoints with a straight line.

The Flatness slider controls how many straight lines the program uses to approximate a curve when

printing. PostScript output devices create curved lines by linking a series of short, straight lines that progress

in angle. The smaller the flatness setting, the greater the number of straight lines, and the more accurate

the curve.

You can also change the default shape attributes. For more information, see “Setting preferences for

drawing shapes” on page 789. In addition, you can paint a shape after the shape has been committed to

a pixel-based image layer. For information, see “Converting shapes to image layers” on page 800.
