Paint pixels

 
 
 

You can paint color, incandescence, and transparency values on individual pixels using the Pixel brush (useful if you are creating textures for games). Strokes painted with the Pixel brush are not anti-aliased.

To pixel paint on the canvas

  1. Select Brush > Single Pixel Brush to turn the pixel brush on. The brush changes to a pointer
  2. Zoom into the area you want to pixel paint so you can see the pixels. To zoom, press the Alt (Windows and Linux) or Option (Mac OS X) key and drag using the left and middle mouse buttons together.
  3. Modify the Color1, Incandescence1, and Transparency1 attribute values, as necessary (in the Shading section of the Paint Effects Brush Settings window or on the toolbar).
  4. Click individual pixels, or drag over pixels to paint them.
  5. When you are finished pixel painting, turn off Brush > Single Pixel Brush to switch to the Paint Effects Tool.
