Building a Tiling Paint Preset
OK, someone was confused about how to create a simple tiling paint preset. So, let's do it. From scratch. Goto the Paint Synthesizer Classic Editor. So i want to reset the paint synthesizer controls to a known state. So i'm going to reinitialize them. I could have used the Reinitialize paint synth macro edit command located in the integrated Help Browser. But i decided to do the same thing inside of the Editor itself. So, holding down the shift key, i then pressed the Init button at the…

I love the Kaleido with source Image PASeq but I want the kaleidoscope to stay centered. I plan on outputing each version to file to make an animation. How can I stop Kaleido 7Symetery from wandering in the Kaleido with source Image PASeq?
I tried using the Kaleido centered aspect wacom and muting 7 but that just produces the same version each time which leads me to wonder if there is an action step i can insert that will emulate my mouse movement on Kaleido centered aspect wacom .? I really should read the manual more and I am I swear but I never reach for help enough so I am doing so. Thank you in advance.

If you record your interactive warp into a PASeq, then the final warp effect you specify with your interactive movements will be recorded.
There is a Kaleido Centered Aspect Wacom that auto-centers it. Your pen pressure determines the N fold symmetry.
We should probably add another option that lets you center and adjust the N-fold symmetry without having to have a Wacom tablet and pressure pen.
If you are asking about a way to dynamically play back your full interactive mouse movement in the effect in a PASeq, we might add that in V6.
There are MSG processors that do kaleidoscopic effects, and you specify their centering with a 0-100% parameter adjustment, so that might be an alternative way to go. So you would set the horizontal and vertical center parameters to 50% to center it. That will track whatever canvas size you are working with.
My guess is that there is already a MSG preset that supports this effect. If you need help in building one i can post an explanation on how to do it.
You could also keyframe your parameter adjustments over time, so then you could build a PASeq via key-framing of the MSG effect that emulates the kind of interactive adjustment you want to make over time.
I start with a question related to the superziser.
How do i use the superziser for videos without any further animation. What is the way to store the result on my computer. I use studioartist 5.5
The default interpolation algorithm is specified in the Canvas : Resize Canvas dialog. Supersizer is the default setting.
If you go to syntheetik.com and look under the support menu, there are options for video tutorials, tips site, etc. Those are good resources there if you don't know what a PASeq is or how to use it to process movie files.
When you process a movie file, you can output to another rendered movie file, or a folder of frame images.
hi , does anyone know if AS is compatible with wacom cintiq 12wx ? if yes
does anyone have a custom key settings that compliment the two to share . thanks . soumaya .
