Every new release this is my first question, did they finally add proper vector capabilities to photopaint? Photopaint is a great piece of software, superior to photoshop in many respect, however, it feels like they've lost their progressive edge. I would love to see Draw's vector tool in photopaint.
One other feature i would like to see in the suite is better integration with Painter, I know that this isn't part of the graphics suite but i feel Painter should be able to open cpt files and cdr files without losing the integrity of the vectors and layers.
Thank you
This is one of the most hidden capabilities in Photo Paint. It has vector layers since long ago, but users and probably engineers don't know about it.
The Text layer is a vector layer.
Copy any vector in Draw.
Activate the text tool in PhotoPaint and paste. Enlarge this layer as you please and you will see that it is resolution independent, because it is kept as vectors.
Hello Michael,
That is an amazing tip, you're right i didn't know about that particular feature and it works great. However, i would still like to see Draw's vector drawing and manipulation tools in Paint. Paint is an awesome tool but it needs to be updated in order to compete with Photoshop more effectively.
Thank you again, i really appreciate that tip.
