I have been exploring the workings of Paitner 7 Watercolor, and compiled
a (tentative) report on the apparent problems. It can be found at:
http://kaburaya.pobox.ne.jp/eng/index.htm
Most of all, I want the following to be corrected:
1. The water color brush picks up black when Resat is low and Bleed is
high.
2. Bleed is not working at all in watercolor.
3. Resat is behaving strangely.
Until these things work as they should in Painter 7, I feel, we will
never see the true strengths of the new watercolor technology.
Also, I have found that, the visibility mask for a water color layer
cannot be edited. When I try to paint on it with a regular brush, an
error message says that I can paint on a water color layer only with a
water color brush. When I try to use a water color brush, Painter says
that you cannot paint on a mask with a water color brush.
A Liquid Ink layer does not have a visibility mask. Perhaps it should be
the same with the Water Color layer?
Like many other users, I look forward to a patch that fixes all these
problems.
And thanks for everyone for the various bits of tips and information. I
have found them very helpful.
