Rainbow Painter Description

Aimed at professionals and amateurs alike, Rainbow Painter comes with lots of exciting features and technologies. This application will support 32-bit float/channel HDR, and this will enable you to apply modifications without losing quality. There is also a revolutionary new pattern editing mode, which puts the old technique of using a so called Offset Filter to achieve seamless tiles to shame. When switching on the repeat function in Rainbow Painter (horizontally, vertically or both), not only will the image be displayed repeatedly, but all effects support this mode and brush strokes will continue over the edges when drawing). Main features: Revolutionary Pattern Editing: View and edit seamless textures and patterns in true WYSIWYG (What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get) style. Just switch on the repeat function (horizontally, vertically or both) and start working! It's like having your artwork on a wallpaper, in a repeating pattern. You can apply effects or paint/draw anywhere on this wallpaper and see the true results immediately! Windows & Dialogs: Virtually all windows and dialogs in Rainbow Painter can be transformed into re-usable permanent windows, by clicking in the lower left-hand corner of the window, marking it with a capital 'P'. A permanent window can be moved around and will, as the name implies, stay open until manually closed instead of automatically closing after one use. Also in the lower-left hand corner, you will find a button with a '-' sign on it. Clicking on this button will make the window significantly smaller, but still fully functional! Clicking again on the button (which now has a '+' sign on it instead) returns the window to normal size. Tools: Rainbow Painter offers lots of different tools, ranging from basic tools like pen and eraser to oil, airbrush and more. When you draw or paint in this program you will always get the best result, thanks to extra precise anti-aliasing (where both the brush and the actual brush strokes are anti-aliased) Effects: You will find normal everyday effects like Brightness and Motion Blur, as well as some fancy ones like Rainbow Painter's unique Splash effects. Layers: Although Rainbow Painter has supported layers since 1999, we have continued to develop this useful feature into something considerably more advanced. Today, the graphics layers have different blend modes and other settings. HDR & Floating Point Precision: Conventional programs use 8 bits per channel (red, green, blue, alpha), an integer value of 0-255, which is only 256 possible levels. Rainbow Painter uses 128 bits per pixel and each color component is a 32-bit floating point value with literally billions of possible levels!
