COREL PAINTER 2018 WINDOWS

Windows users with touchscreens gain gestural control for panning, zooming and rotating the canvas.Īlongside these upgrades to Painter’s core and UI, there are 36 new brushes. The Temporal Color Selector ( below) has been redesigned to take up less space in the UI, as has the Color Selector eyedropper tool. The Colour Wheel, Hue Ring and Saturation/Value Triangle all work the same way as before – but the grabbers are bigger and easier to get hold of. The colour controls have been given an overhaul too. Corel has taken the opportunity to modernise the UI, with redesigned icons that are easier to identify on hiDPI displays such as Apple’s Retina display. Some artists will like this, other will prefer things as they were. Corel says this makes Painter look more professional and “allows the interface to melt away so the artwork takes centre stage”.

This is unsurprising considering that the app is trying to simulate the appearance of flowing, coalescing, drying fluids that reflect and refract light – and which you as an artist must insist on mixing together. Painter is a notoriously power-hungry app – or as owners of more modestly specced computers might call it, sluggish. The last few releases have all focussed largely on specific styles of painting or media, for example, Painter 2018’s gloopy, blobby Thick Paint or 2017’s Texture Painting and Glazing Brushes.įor this latest release, Corel has focussed on how you interact with the software and tried to make it easier to use throughout your day – upgrading the core painting engine and making adjustments to the UI.

With Painter 2019, announced and released today, Corel has gone back to basics.
