Featuring a simple yet deep interface, high-quality brushes, multiple layers, and extreme zooming, it is a powerful tool for creating original artwork, anyplace and anytime. Unlike other apps, Brushes records every brush stroke and erasure as you paint. Afterwards, you can use Brushes Viewer, a free application for Mac OS X, to replay your painting stroke by stroke. You can also export the painting at very high resolutions (up to 1920 x 2880), or export the replay as a QuickTime movie. This guide explains how to use Brushes and Brushes Viewer.

From the Gallery, you can choose a painting to work on, or you can create a new painting. The rst time you open Brushes, several sample paintings are installed automatically. Import an album photo as a background. Create a new painting. Show the info panel. Share your gallery with your computer. Tap a painting thumbnail to view it full screen. Take a photo and use it as a background. The Connect button in the bottom-left corner lets you share your Brushes gallery with a web browser on a nearby computer. For more details about this feature, read the Exporting section. Brushes User’s Guide 4 Viewing When you tap a thumbnail in the Gallery, Brushes shows you the whole painting. Touches on the painting will not modify your artwork, so you can show off your work without accidentally changing it. Return to the Gallery. Start editing the painting. Delete the current painting. Display the action menu. Tap here to duplicate or export your painting. Go to the previous painting. Go to the next painting. Start a slideshow. To hide the toolbar and the navigation bar, tap once on the painting. Tap again to show them again. When you want to edit a painting, tap the Edit button. Brushes will switch from viewing mode to painting mode. See the Painting section for more details. Brushes User’s Guide 5 Navigating When viewing a painting, you can go to the previous painting by tapping the left arrow in the toolbar. To go the next painting, tap the right arrow. You can also move through your paintings by swiping your nger over the painting. To start a slideshow, press the play button in the middle of the toolbar. The slideshow starts with the current painting, and advances to the next one after four seconds. To stop the slideshow, just tap anywhere. Deleting a Painting To delete a painting, tap the trash can button in the toolbar. You will be asked to conrm that you really want to delete the painting. If you do, tap the red Delete Painting button, otherwise tap Cancel. NOTE: Once a painting is deleted, there is no way to recover it. Duplicating a Painting Duplicating a painting is useful when you want to try some changes, but don’t want to risk destroying the original painting. It can also be a handy way to reuse a background as a starting point for a series of paintings. To duplicate a painting, tap the action button on the left side of the toolbar: Activate the action pop up. Brushes User’s Guide 6 And then tap the Duplicate Painting button: Brushes User’s Guide 7 Painting When you make a new painting in the Gallery—by tapping the New Painting button, or by choosing or taking a photo—Brushes will automatically switch to painting mode. You can also enter painting mode by tapping the Edit button in the navigation bar when viewing a painting. Return to the Gallery. Tap here to stop editing the painting and return to viewing mode. Choose the paint color. Show the layers panel. Show the brush panel. Activate the eyedropper tool. Undo. Redo. The canvas. Drag your nger here to paint. To start painting, simply touch the canvas and move your nger, as though you were nger- painting. Each touch becomes a brush stroke. The toolbar and navigation bar will automatically be hidden when you start painting. To show them again, just tap once, anywhere on the canvas. Tap again to hide them again. Brushes User’s Guide 8 Undo and Redo To undo the most recent change to your painting, simply tap the Undo button. Tap again to undo the change before that, and so on. Similarly, to redo a change, tap the Redo button. Brushes remembers as many actions as it can t in memory, so you can usually undo many actions, but you may not be able to undo all the way back to the start of the painting. In practice, this is rarely a problem. Undo Redo Zooming and Panning To zoom in and out, use the standard iPhone pinch gesture. Touch the screen with two ngers at once—usually the index nger and thumb. Move your ngers closer together to zoom out, and farther apart to zoom in. Brushes can zoom from 70% to 1600% (and up to 3200% on the iPhone 4). While zooming, a zoom level indicator will appear at the top of the screen. When the zoom level gets close to 100%, Brushes will automatically snap to 100%, making it easier to get back to normal. You can also “pan”, or scroll, the image while zooming—just move both ngers in the same direction. Once you’ve started a zoom, you can lift one nger to pan without accidentally changing the zoom level.
