Drawing Tools IMPROVED
Use pre-designed and customizable QuickShapes, including arrows, hearts, spirals and more, in your designs. Or why not draw freehand shapes with easy Smart Curves or use the amazing Freeform Paint Tool? Even if you can’t or won’t draw, you’ll be amazed by the impressive results you can achieve.
Animation IMPROVED
Make your drawings leap to life using animation, both stop frame and keyframe, and share them as videos, flash animations or animated GIFs. DrawPlus provides all the tools for novices and experts alike, even offering advanced features like action scripts, onion skinning, background layers, layer masks and frame management.
Fills & Effects IMPROVED
Add professional look to objects and text instantly using blending colour
gradient fills or over 200 supplied photo fills, or even create photo fills
using your own images. Add amazing effects, such as bevel and emboss, shadows,
glows, feathering and 3D effects so that your designs really stand out.
Natural Brushes & Paper Textures
Achieve realistic painting effects with vector and bitmap-based brushes, from categories including watery paint and more, or even create your own. Also select from various paper textures, including Parchment and Watercolour for even more authenticity. And, with full support for pressure sensitive graphics tablets, it’s just like drawing on canvas!
Scale Drawings
Drag rulers across your page to measure objects and set their dimensions using your choice of ruler units, at your specified scale, from millimetres to miles! Dimensions automatically update when objects are moved or resized! Design room or garden layouts, make maps, draw scale models... the choice is yours.
Connected Objects
Create dynamic link lines between objects, which retain connection even when objects are moved. Default connection points will automatically appear when you have the Connector tool selected and draw a line towards the destination object, making it quick and easy to create stylish flow charts, family trees and other diagrams.
Autotrace
Insert photographs and bitmap images and let Autotrace transform them into
vector images that can be ungrouped into component parts for editing.
Achieve striking, artistic effects by re-colouring, adding, deleting
and changing sections to get the look you want. Adjustable smoothness
and tolerance settings help you to get the desired effect too!
Image Adjustments
Apply a range of corrective adjustments, including Red Eye Remover, Contrast and Colour Balance, or effect-inducing adjustments, such as Diffuse Glow and Blur, to correct common photographic problems and enhance your images. Effects can be applied cumulatively in the Image Adjustments dialog and previewed as you add them to get exactly the right results.
