When installed, the eraser script will automatically switch to the eraser tool when the eraser button is pressed and switch back to the previous tool when the eraser button is released.
Currently the eraser script works on the Power Mac and the 68K version of Painter 3.1.
Note: When using Fractal Design's Painter™, the tablet should be placed into "tablet" or absolute mode. It is not recommended to user Painter™ in "mouse" or relative mode.
Installation Directions:
Copy one eraser script or your choice into the settings file of Painter 3.1 by using the settings mover (under the menu Tools:Movers:Session Mover...). Note: Only one eraser script can be in use at a time. To use a different script you will need to remove the current eraser script and add a new one.
1) Copy the eraser scripts from the "Painter" folder on the CalComp driver disk or CD, to the "Sessions" folder in the "Painter 3.1" folder.
2) In Painter 3.1 under the "Tools" menu select the menu item "Movers:Sessions Mover...".
3) Click on the "Open" button on the right hand side of the dialog. A standard "Open" dialog will appear.
4) Using the open dialog, open the "Sessions" folder in the "Painter 3.1" folder. The eraser scripts, along with other scripts in the "Sessions" folder will appear.
5) Select the eraser script of you choice and click on the "Copy" button. The script will appear in the list on the left hand side.
6) Click on the "Quit" button to leave the "Sessions Mover".
You can export the script (export is in the playback session... dialog accessed from the Tools:Playback Session... Menu) to see what it does or to create your own. The script name must be "Eraser Pen".
