Editing, renaming, and deleting scripts

Corel Painter lets you modify scripts in different ways. You can edit script instructions in order to change a recorded action sequence. You can also rename and delete scripts.

You can edit a script by opening it as a series of instructions that contain parameters, most of which are editable. You can also edit a script by exporting the script (.txt file) and then opening the file in a text editor. For more information, see Importing and exporting scripts.
