506 Corel Painter X3 Getting Started Guide

Brush methods and painting on layers

The Natural-Media environment allows brushstrokes on different layers to interact with

each other. However, mixing brushstrokes that use the Cover and Buildup methods on

the same layer can produce unexpected results. This is caused by a conflict between the

brush method and the layer’s composite method.

• Brushes that use the Buildup method — such as those in the Felt Pens or Pencils

category — work best on layers that use the Gel composite method. In fact, when

you use the Buildup method to paint on a blank layer, Corel Painter automatically

sets the layer’s composite method to Gel.

• Brushes that use the Cover method work best on layers that are set to the Default

composite method.

For more information, see “Blending layers by using composite methods” on page 510

and “General controls: Methods and subcategories” on page 329.

General tips for painting on layers

The following are tips for painting on layers:

• You can use Watercolor brushes only on Watercolor layers.

• You can use Liquid Ink brushes only on Liquid Ink layers.

• You must collapse a layer group before painting, because you cannot paint on

grouped layers. For more information, see “Grouping layers” on page 502.

• You must commit a shape to a pixel-based layer before painting. Corel Painter

prompts you to commit a shape if you attempt to paint on it. After you commit the

shape, you cannot re-access the shape’s vector controls. For more information, see

“Converting shapes to image layers” on page 768.

• You can protect areas of a layer from painting by creating a selection or preserving

transparency. For more information, see “Selections and Transformations” on

page 543 and “Preserving layer transparency” on page 507.

• You can control what parts of a layer are visible and hidden by creating a layer

mask. For more information, see “Creating and deleting layer masks” on page 518.

2 Click the Brush selector on the Brush selector bar.
