- ------------
-
- USE THE MOUSE BUTTONS:-
-
- In Paint Area :- [S] To Draw [M] Spray [A] Types
-
- In Colour Bar :- [S] Select Colour [M] Symm1 [A] Dither
-
- In Util Area :- [S] Symm2 [M] Symm3 [A] Symm4
-
- In Size Area :- [S] IncreaseX [M] Restore Minimum [A] Increase Y
-
- KEYS:-
-
- E= END S= SAVE L= LOAD O= Symm0 R= RUBBER C= CLEAR SCREEN
-
-
- 32000 Colours are available. 256 by clicking [S] in Colour Bar.Click
- [A] in Colour Bar and then click [S] followed by [A] over the required
- colours to combine them.
-
- There are 5 Types of Symmetry. On starting Symm0 is already selected.
- This allows Drawing, Spraying and Flooding with the appropriate buttons
- in the selected colours. Symm0 produces single operations without
- symmetrical copies. It can be reselected by pressing O.
-
- Symm1 gives a four way symmetry in drawing and spraying but also
- givesflooding with [A].
-
- Symm2, Symm3 and Symm4 give two way symmetries, in X and Y directions
- and Diagonally both when drawing and spraying. The [A] button will
- produce single circles in Symm2, rectangles in Symm3 and four-way
- circles in Symm4.
-
- All sizes will be affected by pressing the appropriate buttons in the
- Size Area. Sizes can reach 100 in X AND Y directions. [M] reduces the
- size to 1 for both.
-
- There is a picture in the Directory Screens, not very sophisticated, but
- showing all the features of this program.
-
- Several Pictures may be loaded or saved in succession within this
- Directory. They will be called DesPic1, DesPic2, DesPic3 and so on by
- default. It is advisable to change these names otherwise they will be
- written over the next time this program is used. However, by entering
- your own names for the load and save files you will still get a
- succession of files with the chosen name but numbered in series. In
- order to load a file give the name without the number. This can only be
- loaded by pressing L. It is assumed that no foreign files will be
- required to be loaded into this program. If so, it can easily be
- modified.
-
-
- I have not been able to work out why this program ceases up sometimes. I
- would be grateful if someone can find a cure for this and send it to me.
- It seems to work better when the drawing is done slowly. Or a picture
- can be worked on in several sessions rather than all at once.
-
- I would also like to implement a method of choosing the centres of
- symmetry by mouse during a work session, but all attempts at this have
- led to a crash.
-
- Some wonderful productions are possible if only some talent for Art is
- also available.
- HAPPY DOODLING!
