Spritz is a new concept in painting programs for the Amiga from Glacier
Technologies. The program targets the introductory level user by not
overwhelming one with an overabundance of features. It does incorporate
most of the usual basic paint features expected, and the program also
incorporates some unique and powerful features for the graphics
professional and power user who would view it simply as a necessary
utility to one or more full-featured products like Express Paint.
It is suggested that you try the following features to get started:
- Grab Screen gives you ten seconds to activate another screen to grab.
- Change Screen lets you change the page, resolution and # of colors.
- Experiment with the six ranges of color cycling.
- While the startup window is open choose the Preferences menu and
experiment with the defaults. Choose Make Permenant when you've decided.
- Choose Open-Cut Drawer from the Project menu and load an entire drawer
of cuts in one command from the Award.Kit drawer.
- Choose Iconize from the Modes Menu to tuck Spritz away for awhile. Select
the small iconized window and press the right mouse button to reactivate.
- Use the Power Borders features by making a cut visible in the box tool
then, using the patterned box mode, draw a rectangle and press the alt
key when you press the left mouse button to end the rectangle operation.
- Use the Smart-link feature with multiple copies of Spritz. To do this,
run the Portmanager by clicking on its icon. Then start at least two
copies of Spritz and use the options under the Special and Use menus.
- Copy Screen or Brush from one copy of Spritz to another.
For the sake of convenience, a brief list of some of the program's notable
features is given below:
