Speed and performance enhancements let you focus on your art and forget about technology.
Users on the Mac OS will notice extended processing power right away, especially during operations that require big data transfers, such as opening files, switching clone sources, working with multiple layers, using large documents and more.
Whether you're working on a Mac or a PC, you'll notice increased speed in Painter 2015. With the latest round of CPU performance optimizations, brushes perform faster, so you can concentrate on your art and forget about technology.
Corel Painter 2015 takes the guesswork out of applying effects. You can now preview effects in real-time on the canvas so you instantly get an idea how the whole painting will look.
Because each artist uses a different strength or pressure level in a stroke, the enhanced Brush Tracking utility helps calculate the appropriate settings for pressure and velocity. The new visual power curve helps you control universal application pressure-sensitive memory and instantly apply the settings to the current brush variant. There are default pressure curves to choose from, or you can tweak the curve and save it as a preset. You can also make practice strokes with a variant on the canvas while you’re calibrating the brush tracking so you can draw from with the most realistic, accurate brushstroke information possible. For more information, see Brush tracking and calibration.
