Using the Selection Portfolio

Corel Painter provides a library of sample selections in the Selection Portfolio. You can use any of the selections in the portfolio. If you create a path-based selection that you want to use again, you can store it in the portfolio. You can add your selections to the sample library, or you can create your own library. For information about creating and using your own libraries, refer to "Libraries and Movers".

To store a selection in the portfolio

1. Create the path-based selection you want to store.
2. Choose Window menu > Show Selection Portfolio.
3. Choose the Selection Adjuster tool from the toolbox.
4. Drag the selection to the Selection Portfolio palette.
5. In the Save Selection dialog box, type a name for the selection.

To use a selection from the portfolio

• On the Selection Portfolio palette, do one of the following:

• Drag a selection to the document window.
• Double-click a selection.

This places the selection in its original position on the canvas, provided that the document dimensions are the same.

• The current selection is replaced.
