2.
Select either
BLACK SCREEN
or
WHITE SCREEN
for your
mask store background. Then select either a BLACK (for
white screen) or WHITE (for black screen) brush with the
BRUSH SOURCE
button. Hint: If you are using a black brush
on a white screen you may want to adjust the
BRUSH
OPACITY
soft knob to a value of 20% or higher. A value of 0 to
5% makes the brush strokes very hard to see.
3.
Use
FILL SHAPE
to fill a completely enclosed shape with either
black or white, as selected by
BRUSH SOURCE
. If the shape is
not completely closed, the fill will “leak out” and fill the entire
screen. (This may happen if you have the
BRUSH SOFTNESS
soft knob set to a low value, such as 0 to 15%.) First, press the
FILL SHAPE
button to get a “cross hair” cursor. Then touch the
graphics tablet pen inside the shape to be filled; the filling
action will begin. The screen message:
FILL REGION COMPLETE
displays when the operation is complete.
NOTE:
The FILL SHAPE function times out 5 seconds after pressing
the button. The cursor “cross hair” reverts back to a brush.
4.
SAVE
and
UNDO
buttons. Use SAVE periodically throughout
your mask draw work session to save desired results. Use
UNDO to delete current undesired results. Screen messages:
SAVE COMPLETE
UNDO COMPLETE
display when these operations are done.
