Starting Photopaint

Start Photopaint from the menus:

  1. Select the Start button on the Windows task bar

  2. Select Programs and then Ability Office

  3. Select Ability Photopaint

The first thing you’ll notice about the opening screen is the minimal number of standard toolbars. This is because you need as much of your screen as possible to view the image. Photopaint has floating toolboxes that automatically appear according to the task in hand. There are four of these floating toolboxes: the Tools bar, which contains the various paint and selection tools; Layers, Information and Recent Colors. These can be turned on and off in the View menu.
