Paint Shop Pro 6 : The Draw Tool Options

Style


Stroked:Applies the foreground or background color to the line, depending on which mouse button is depressed.

Filled: A straight edge connects the start and end points with the enclosed area being filled with the active color

Stroked/Filled: A straight edge connects the start and end points with the enclosed area being filled with the active color that was not used for the initial line. For example, if you draw a curved line in the foreground color, the filled area will be the background color.

Curve Tracking

Both the Raster and Vector Freehand Line Types are made up of line segments. The distance between the line segment points is controlled by the Curve Tracking setting. The smaller the number setting, the more segments included in the line, the larger the setting, the less segments in the line.

Cap

 
 
The Line Cap Style determines the shape of the line ends with Round and Square extending beyond the ends of the path.

Join

The Join Button options set the shape of the corners, the corners taking on the shape of the button name. The Miter join requires that the Miter Limit value be set between 1 and 500. Setting the Miter Limit does not affect the other two join buttons.
