Online Help for Chasys Draw IES: GT Shape Tool


GT Shape Tool
 

 

Draws a shape in which the color gradually changes from [color #1 + alpha1] to [color #2 + alpha2]. Hold the Shift button to constrain it to a regular shape (e.g. square or circle). Where applicable, this tool responds to the width and level settings. The size of the area can be controlled using the snap-to-grid feature, in which case the tool will correct the box size to always be a multiple of the grid size.
