This is a preset that generates very Low detail that is not enough,
1-I like the shapes but How can I increase the numbers of the cells for more and more details? (I changed all the parameters values but but I could not get more cells)
2-I use a directory of png images for it, How Can I force SA to use best image shapes or rotate them without change the height and width of that image?
3-How can I force SA to use best images (with colors sums) for each cells without using "Make Self Colorizing Brush"?
4-How Can I change the (white spaces) background color to my custom color?
thank you for your time

The Max Stroke setting in the path Start control panel of the paint synthesizer lets you control the number of regions. This is true for any of the path start regionization generator options. If you decrease the Max Stroke, you will get more regions.
If you want to use the Brush Modulation orientation modulation controls to modulate the rotation of the images inside of the regions, you need to use the 'Alpha Only - BrMod Orient Rotate' option for the brush Option parameter in the Region as Brush Mode control panel. And then setup the Brush Modulation control panel orientation modulation controls appropriately.
You should use the Image Folder option for the Source parameter in the Brush Source control panel. You have it set to Text right now. Then you can use one of the RGB Mapping options for the MB 1D Frame Mod parameter.
Just erase the canvas to the appropriate background color prior to running the preset.
When i changed the max stroke their shapes convert to square!
That's not what i see. I get smaller cellular regions.
Original preset, Max Stroke = 60.
Modified preset, Max Stroke = 10.
I think the problem is after selecting 'Alpha Only - BrMod Orient Rotate', SA generates Blocks instead of cells!
Ok,
Now I use:[Path Start]-->[Cellular Regionize], which options must I use If I want self shapes of each png in optimized place?

I looked at the code for that particular Brush Option, and it looks like it just uses brush orientation modulation to rotate all 4 RGBA brush buffers.
I think the best way to fix it is to leave that setting and rename it appropriately, and then add 2 new options. What you want (rotate RGB, don't rotate A) or (rotate RGBA, mask rotated alpha) would be one of the 2 new options.
The changes should end up in 5.02 whenever we release that update.
Dea john, Is it possible to add black(any color) lines inside each region (draw outlines inside not out side)?
I want not only the white spaces between each parts but Also Back lines inside the regions in raster mode not vector.
thank you
Here's your preset edited to include a black outline for each cell attached below.
The edit was made in the Vector Output control panel. The Vector Rim Color is now set to black. You can also edit the Rim Size if you want a different thickness.
This is an edit to the vector preset you added.
If you want to draw a raster black line, then probably the easiest way to do it is to run 2 passes. First run the preset drawing whatever you want inside of the regions. then edit that preset to draw a black raster paint outline only, and run it as a second paint pass. You can record both action steps in a PASeq for easy use.
You want to edit it so it uses interactive pen for the pen mode, and modify the brush source to be a small computational brush for the black line drawing, setup Paint Fill Setup control panel appropriately to draw with paint color, and set the Color to black in Paint Color Source control panel.
Your original paint preset has a lot of wonky things turned on that don't affect vector region paint, but will affect normal raster path painting, so you have to deal with all of that as well. i did that and attached a preset for you below that just draws a black raster paint outline for the regions.
