how to import image and use for cursor

You'll need the Cursor Editor instead of Paint.COM.

how to color text

how do i create an animated gif?

Yeah, I've been wondering the same thing. Is there even a way. Like maybe with layers or something?

No, only static images are supported.

transparency color

my friend uses realworldpaint and he is able to make the backgrounds change color.
how do you do that?

is there a clone tool?

The pressure sensitivity isn't working. how do fix?

Install your tablet driver. It must be wintab-compatible. It works with the brush tool only and you can enable pressure sensitivity for flow, size or blur in the settings panel.

The resizing works great but would like to adjust the resulting picture size from 3.13 to 3.93 or 4 inches. Is that possible

The physical size of a picture is controlled by a single number called DPI. There is no direct way of changing it in the application, because it has virtually no effect except telling the world what size is the picture supposed to be. The program that is then used for printing may or may not take this into account. I would recommend simply setting the required physical size in the program you use for printing.

The printing plug-in that allows you to set physical size before printing is not compatible with the current version of RW Paint. If you would want to use it, you would need to wait few weeks for the next version of Paint.

I have a ohotograph I want to turn into an icon, but when I select making an icon from the photograph, it is very blurred. What am I doing wrong?

(Assuming the photograph is big enough.) An icon has multiple images and you can select which ones to create by putting a checkmark to them when creating an icon. If you want to keep a lot of details, you should have the largest (256x256 image) checked. The smaller ones will have less details. When the small image is viewed in the editor and zoomed in, it may look blurred. Look in the lower left corner to see it not zoomed (you may need to drag the pane or close some panels), just like Windows will display it.

I cannot see how to convert an image so that the background is made transparent. None of the help or discussion I can find covers this.

With RWPaint?

Looks like he's/she's talking about it. Yes... I really hate the way of Real World Paint handles Alpha Channel.

I need to know how to use my created cursor. Thanks 😊

Have installed RW Paint free version and thought the layers, brushes, etc had installed but cannot find them. There is no media library icon on the tool bar. What am I missing?

If you have installed the media packs from the Online page, you'll find them when opening a layer style, image brush, etc. in the appropriate open file windows - look near the top of the windows for a Tagged library tab.

guy can you help me to created cursor pleasa help me 😉

Problem!
Open the filelist where you can see more then one graphic files.
Then e.g. change colorize (Ctr-i) and remember config.
Now load the next file (to colrize it with the remembered setting)
Unfortunaly RwPaint opens a hole new instance, thus you cannot
revert the remembered colorizing config.
Question: WHY IS THIS?! and CAN YOU CHANGE IT?

Best Regards from The Netherlands!

If you close the old file before opening the new one, the last setting will be there. I decided to keep the configuration of concurrently opened windows separate to prevent unexpected things from happening. For example if you re-configured a panel or a toolbar in one window, other windows would also change. This may change in the future. If I ever implement a tabbed document interface, the configuration will be shared for sure.

how to sharpen an image

Try the Unsharp mask command in the Effect menu.

Please tell me how to insert a clipart to my image ?

drag and drop the clipart file to the canvas?

In fact, I have a google earth image and I want to symbolize factories and mines in the region.

Thank You

Feeling dumb, how the hell do you crop?????

With the crop tool in the toolbar above the canvas.

It let's me select, then what???

press Enter or apply the action with a mouse gesture or by right-clicking and selecting "Apply" from the context menu

Not easy to find. Had to right click???
Not very intuitive...

you don't have to right click, that is just one of 3 ways

Its place an image over another?

how do i make meh and my sister name

I'm trying to dump a large amount of text onto a layer. How do I resize the textbox to fit the space templated on the other layer?

That was me, and I just registered, so let me re-ask the question (unlike Rory).
I'm trying to dump a large amount of text onto a layer. How do I resize the textbox to fit the space templated on the other layer?

You should not need to resize it - type or paste your text and it will be all visible on the canvas.

But it's multiple rows, and the fontsize is huge because the pixel count is high. How do I control fontsize without resizing the box? Does it have wordwrap, or should I make each row of text a separate box?

Maybe I should just tell you what I'm doing. I'm making a dustjacket for a trade hardback from a .PNG file, and the inside sleeves are 9" tall by 3" wide. I am trying to put the synopsis of the book (about 200 words) in there with a picture of the author on the bottom of the right sleeve.

You need to press Enter at the end a of a line, there is no automatic word wrapping. You can edit the text in the small area near the right edge of the window.

Hello, I tryed to download new version of RWP. Download was successful, according to download wizzard. When i tryed to open the application, it crashed and could not recover. Had to do a system restore and i now have older version running. Question, should i just try and reinstall? ..(OS windows7 hp service pk 1, internet explorer 10, 4 gig ram, 400g free space, system all up to date) thanks for any help...airboat233

In what way it crashed? Did you use the portable version or the installer?

If you had the older version installed and installed the new one, it is possible that something from the old version remained on your computer. Usually, this should not happen, but who knows. Using the portable version and putting it into a new, empty folder is the easiest way to get it running. If you want the installed version, it may help to uninstall the older one first, then verify the there is nothing left in the application folder (usually C:\Program Files\RealWorld Paint), then go to %APPDATA%\RealWorld\RWPaint and delete the PlugIns folder, which may contain updates for the older version. Then install the new version downloaded from this web (some mirrors, like download.com may have older builds).

Hi and thanks a heap. I did the uninstall and checked for left overs (could not find any) and then installed the new version. All is good .Thanks agin airboat233 😊

Is pcx the only option for the size of a new canvas / picture? I would need mm or cm and DPI

Yes, only pixels can be used and you can also select dpi (pixels/dpi*25.4 = mm).
But you can use simple expressions when specifying image size. If you want to set the size of your new image to 20mm at 100DPI, you can type "20*100/25.4" (without the quotes) into the Width box and 100 into the Resolution box and it will work.

May I ask why you want to use these physical units at image creation? They only matter at the moment of printing and if you use the print plug-in, you may select desired size in physical units just before printing and see how the image fits onto a page.

rwp been walking fine but now all the sudden its not letting me save the pictures. what would cause it to start doing that 😞 getting frustrated cause I need the image to save

Hi,

How to reduce the size of a layer's part, proportionally I mean, using a % for exemple.
I use the tool "transform" but I can't keep proportion.
thx.

Enable "Preserve aspect ratio" in the tool properties panel by the right side of the window.

I clicked hide menu or something in the ps filter section and now I cant import new filters because it only shows the one i installed before (even that didnt work) how to get back the ps filter menu?

You can reset configuration (which returns the application to the initial state). Or you can try repairing it manually, but that is quite complicated: go to Tools->Options, enable "Show menu command for layout control", open an image, go to Tools->Configure layout, switch to "Menu configuration" tab, click on "#5 - Document - Condition", then increase the size of the window until you see 4 commands in the right side of the window. Click the 3rd one, then on the blue text on the right to zoom in, then probably do that again until you'll finally see the "Hide manager" checkbox - uncheck it and click OK.

thanks a lot

How do I change the brush size?

Look for the Tool properties panel at the right side of the window (while the Brush tool is selected) and there is a "Size" box.

Salve ho praticamente nessuna esperienza con questo programma, volevo chiedervi come posso incurvare il testo , volevo creare una immagine con sfondo trasparente (alpha) da usare come timbro sulle mie foto di lavoro. Spero saprete darmi qualche indicazione. Grazie

Why can't I print an image - NO "print" is not in the drop down menu under file... HELP please!

You need to instal a plug-in for printing. Go to the Online page within the application, switch to Plug-ins tab, click on Install in the Print row and restart the software.

I can not open the Realworldpaint. There is no explanation. From one moment to the next. Successfully re-installed it several times, but it will not opens. Then I installed the RealWorld Cursor, it's opens. RealWorld Paint fit me better for my hands. 😞

Now I had just to restart the computer. Although the program is witty, easy to use, does not take up much space, but not the first difficulty. It is quite vulnerable. 😊

It is hard to guess what happened, but resetting configuration may help. Or use the portable version.

Seem to have a problem with saving original image size as GIF. Saving as PNG works fine.

IE: Creating a new image file size 18x18 pixels.

Save as PNG: 18x18
Save as GIF 18x11 <- ?

could you send me the problematic png and gif to info@rw-designer.com ?

Sent.

In case anyone else cares about this problem, the resolution is that the GIF is fine, but Windows Explorer (at least in Win7) does not display its size correctly.

How do I remove part of an image and still save the background?
Thank you,
Tom

check out this tutorial

Hi. I took a photo and cut the people from the background because I wanted to edit the people separately from the background. When I pasted it onto the background again it worked well because the people went over the original photo. Then I saved the files and closed the paint. Now the background for the people I cut out is black instead of transparent. I can't paste them onto a photo anymore because the black covers everything. Please help!

Have you perhaps saved the files as .JPG ? If yes, then you describe is very probable. JPG does not support transparency. If you want to keep layers and transparency, you should save files in the internal file format .RLI or in another format that supports them.

I saved it as JPG. Ugh! Thank you for your help. Now I know for next time. 😊

I scanned a piece of vinyl cloth in as a jpeg. For some reason everything with a purple hue in the original comes in as a shade of blue in the jpg. How can I select a color with the dropper then replace all pixels of that color with another color?

GIF does not support semi-transparency and so you may seem jagged edges instead of smooth ones when using that file format. Unfortunately, there is universally accepted image format that supports both animations and smooth transparency. While RWPaint can save you work as either animated WebP or animated PNG, it is unlikely that Facebook will recognize and accept them. WebP works in Chrome, animated PNG works in Firefox.

If you need to change color of the whole image, try the Adjust->Colorize or Adjust->More effects->Shift hue in the main menu

Why does RWP start minimized? 😞
Win7/64bit
This occurred today when I tried to open a .png file.
Should I re-install RWP?
Thanks.

Screen: http://prntscr.com/3544rp

That looks more like your computer was low on memory or some other shared resource. Re-installing probably won't help. I would try to restart the computer, check it for viruses and eventually reset configuration of RWP.

Reset helped a lot! 😁
Thanks!

how do I flip a line

Hi vlasta I have a question whenever I create an animation for sometime and save it the drawings and lines are normal then when i save it a different time and open the file the lines are ruined what i mean by that is that when I begin to draw the lines are neat and perfect and i recently opened what I created the animation is messed up because the lines are stat-icky and theyre not neat as when I first created them. Is there any way i can return my drawing to normal? this happens so much my animation is on dithering either I saves the file as it is

Could you send me the problematic file to info@rw-designer.com ? I have hard time imagining what exactly happened.

how do I crop a particular image out of a photo to use in a separate layout?

The magic wand selection isn't working right (doesn't show the full selected area, it's cut off in some points even when the color is the same) and it's slowing down the application. I tried reopening the program and making the image smaller, neither worked. This has never happened before. What might be the problem?

^ Looks like it might be the "continuous boost" option doing it. Nevermind.

Every time I save a GIF file, the colors get contra-ed, blue goes red and vice versa, it's so annoying! Is there a way to stop this?

I wan to reduce the opacity of a photo. How do I do that?

There is a Transparency command in the Image menu. Be sure to save the image in a file format that supports transparency, for example .png and NOT .jpg.

How do I save as animated png file?

I am getting error message unable to save as animated png.

Are you able to save the file in other formats? If yes, please save it as .rli and send it to info@rw-designer.com and I'll check it out.

I was wondering whether there are any effects similar to the "Posterize" effect on photoshop available in the program or for download anywhere else

You can use plug-ins designed for Phosothop, here is one for posterization and here is how you can install a Ps plug-in in RWPaint.

hello
how to set transparent color for .png image?

If you want to make certain color in an image transparent, probably the best way is to use the eraser Floodfill tool in the flood-fill group and clicking on areas with that color.

onde fica a borracha?

where the rubber is ?

Among the tools, but you can also simply select completely transparent color and it will erase pixels.

Is there a spray can tool, it doesn't show up on any tool Icon.

No spray paint. You can possibly use the brush tool with a custom image instead.

I don't know how to use the animated one it doesn't allow me to apply it

Just wondering is there way to adjust the size of brush? Does the program allows such a task?

Sure, look in the tool properties pane by the right side of the window with Brush tool active.

Is it possible to apply texture to a photo? How is it done, please help!

I do not understand what do you mean by applying texture to a photo, do you have an example?

Is there a tool called color selection or color picker? Where is it located?

Probably not. The closest you can get to something like that is by typing

DrawTool.SELECT_FLOODFILL();

into the box below canvas. That will give you a tool that selects colors similar to the clicked pixel, but only near to it. You can SHIFT-click multiple times or you can reconfigure the tool to use multiple source points.

If you like the tool, you can click Tool presets->Add custom preset in the toolbar above canvas so that you do not need to type the above command every time.

how can be replace a color with another?

how do you mirror an image? for example Ive created an eye in my painting and i copy it and paste the other eye however everytime i use the mirror option it places both eyes in the same direction.I want the other eye to go in the opposite direction, my question is how do i individually mirror the eye?

Depending on how exactly you have created it, there may be a better way, but try for example selecting the region around it with the Transform tool or mirroring it, copying the mirrored version, undoing the mirror and pasting it back.

every time i select the region I want to mirror It mirrors both the images in the same direction I want to mirror them seperately to where the eyes go in the opposite direction I used this program in 2014 for a while and i never had trouble selecting an image and mirroring it all i had to do was select the image and click the mirror option and it mirrored it seperately but now i cant do that

How can I enlarge a print?

Hi! RW Paint user here, been using it since early 2016.

It's a really neat program but I have a few issues with it.

1. I come into a lot of memory issues and the program not working properly when the program is supposedly handling a lot.

If I have a project with a lot of layers, the program might not behave properly, with some layers not displaying correctly, corrupted/unsavable worked on files if some threshold of memory is reached with it and some features just straight up not functioning, at all. And I've never come across an issue like this with other programs and usually if I do results in a crash, there's some kind of autosave feature installed into said program, which RW Paint lacks to begin with.

2. Some simple UI things--
When I add a layer, in say programs like SAI or FireAlpaca, it'll add a layer over the one I have selected, whereas with RW Paint, it'll just add the layer over every currently existing layer which made sense at first, but again; With pieces with lots of layers, this can be a little bothersome.

And another is I can select multiple layers and merge them at once. There's a merge all layers function from what I can see, and I assumed hey, if I select multiple layers and press that, it should put them all together, but it doesn't which kind was kind of off-putting. A feature like that would be really neat.

I think these 2 or 3 issues are the only ones that really stand out to me.

You may want to try the 64 bit version from http://download.rw-designer.com/latest/RWPaint64.zip It should be able to handle bigger projects if you have enough memory in your computer and it may even have the layer merging fixed.

I saved a raster image as svg but it's not what i wanted.. when i zoom it looks like raster image. How do i prepare the image before exportation to make a Vector image?

Converting a raster image to a true vector image automatically is very hard and it is not a part of RWPaint, at least right now. You would have to create a vector layer and create shapes in that layer to mimic the raster image and then delete the raster layer and save as svg. You can try some online services like https://www.rastertovector.com/
