 :::The Navigator View... The View... menu has an option to view the Navigator, which shows a thumbnail version of the whole image in progress. The red rectangle can be dragged around to easily and very quickly select the part of a large image to view and work on. This is a faster and more intuitive way than using the standard scrollbars. The Navigator preview window can be resized. That way, if you work on very high resolution screens, then you can arrange to see more details in the preview navigator too. |

| :::Resolution
Independence... Re-Rendering to Larger Size All brush strokes are recorded and memorized. Gertrudis can therefore re-apply the strokes, after you change the image size. For example, you could have started with a small image that you then wish to enlarge. Resampling the finished image could have introduced a hint of blurriness, but it won't  remain
present long: Re-rendering the strokes will re-apply them at new,
larger image, thus re-calculating all intricate details associated with
the brush settings. The result is often essentially the same as if a
high resolution image had been used in the first place. The resulting
effect is thus independent of the resolution of the original image.This is a great capability of the standalone edition. It is an important feature for artists who do a lot of high-resolution work such as for print with posters. Instead of simply resampling the finished image, Gertrudis can re-calculate (re-render) the effect of the brush strokes on a larger base image. In this screenshot you also see the edges and flow vectors (in the left-side view) which are established when you first load the image and Gertrudis does an initial analysis of the picture's main topological features. The color gradient flux field (short green vector lines) is used along with the major borders (darker outlines) to automatically guide which way the brush bristles are re-aligned while you brush over the picture. You can optionally turn the display of these features on to get a better idea of what Gertrudis saw. You can also use sliders to change the influence of these 'force fields' and barriers. And you can also use a freeform mode to totaly override and ignore them all, breaking through existing features and shapes to create new ones. |
