624 Corel PaintShop Pro X7 User Guide
• Size — defines the size of the tool head in pixels
• Thickness — defines the aspect ratio of the tool head
• Rotation — defines the angle of head rotation in degrees
• Head Tracking — controls whether the tool head bends around
the path of the stroke, or whether it remains at a fixed angle
• Trace check box — allows the Marker tool to select the pigment
color by sampling the data below the center of the tool,
regardless of the layer type
Important! When you hold down the mouse button to begin the
stroke, note that a single sample is performed and the resulting
color is used for the duration of the stroke.
Using the Watercolor Brush tool
You can use the Watercolor Brush tool to simulate the transparent
strokes of watercolor painting. Watercolor brushstrokes reveal the
canvas texture and are wet in terms of how they interact with other
strokes when you smear or mix them together. For more information
see “To dry or wet an Art Media layer” on page 608.
To reload the Watercolor Brush tool with color, you can
• reload the brush with a solid color
• reload the brush by sampling from the Mixer page
