New to Abacus FSRepainter ... some really basic questions

Hi All,

 

Y'all have been so great in answering my questions I thought I'd thow this one out and see if anybody has the answers.

 

I got FSRepainter on sale and have it downloaded and installed. I've read thru much of the Help section and find it to be "somewhat" helpful. One of the problems I'm having is being able to access the color editor. I'd like to use some custom colors for a VA I belong to.

 

Another little thing I don't see right off is a way to drawn curved lines. I see the line, rectangle and polygon but nothing for drawing a curved line.

 

Now, I'll be the first to admit that I may have overlooked something in which case I offer my sincerest apologies for wasting averyone's time but I would still like to have someone point out where I should look.

 

Thanks for the help in advance.

Near the top right corner of the texture editor are the thumbnails for the fore and background colors.

 

Double click on one of the thumbnails to access the color picker.

 

The only way to draw a curved line is freehand with the paint brush.

 

The built in texture editor is pretty basic, not much more than MSPaint.

 

To get real high quality paints you need another editor, preferably one that works with layers.

 

Photoshop is my tool of choice, luckily I did not have to pay for it.

 

GIMP is a freeware image editing software that is pretty popular in the sim community.

 

peace,

Thanks Bean, I appreciate the input. Luckily I have Photoshop and GIMP as well. I was looking for something quick and easy. Hopefully, I'll be able to integrate everything and make something decent.

OK, just did that. I've got the RBG editor there. When I click on it nothing happens. Am I missing something here?
