Admin menu
The Admin Menu allows you to access various functions of Paint from data bindings, in and out effects and more, which are detailed further down this guide.
The Admin menu can also be accessed by RMB pressing on the clear icon in the control bar.
Operator mode
Operator mode shows UI elements in preview, like keyframe animation trail, keyframe buttons, production end or graphic eraser.
Enabled by default. Can be disabled via button in tool administration dialog.
Tools can have a number of back end presets built inside it. These presets have different settings such as colors, settings for animations and files. You can access them in the tool context menu by right clicking it. Currently applied preset(s) will be marked with a checkmark.
Presets
Fast preset selection
Presets can have fast selection enabled. These presets won't be shown in the Presets context menu mentioned above but instead each time the user clicks into the preview to create a drawing,
a popup menu with available preset options will be shown. He then selects one to apply it before the drawing is created or chooses the <Unchanged> option to simply use the tool as is.
Drawing presets
Since 9.7, presets can be applied for a drawing after it was placed in the preview. You can achieve that by right clicking on the drawing in the timeline. If there are any available presets for the drawing, the menu will contain item Presets with the same presets found in the context menu of the tool that was used to create the drawing (parent tool). Presets with checkmarks are currently applied for the drawing.
It can happen that Presets menu item isn't present either because . . .
- the drawing is from older versions than 9.7.
- the parent tool doesn't have any presets.
- the parent tool cannot be found in the toolbar.
