Software with an Impressionistic heart
(...and you can watch it paint)
History:
Version 2.0.7
- Now included a memory extended version called DAP Extended which should allow for higher resolution output if the original would crash etc.
Version 2.0
- Custom Canvas (place seamless jpg in the canvas folder in DAP) then restart DAP
- Ability to save during pause (Save Paused in the File menu) , during normal painting (Except Dry Reveal cycle) pause by right click and then save the image, unpause with right click and continue. Reapeat as needed.
Version 2.0
- Surrealistic option will paint the subject shapes reminiscent of the way VanGogh painted his subjects (Strength is controllable). Works best on nature subjects, flowers, trees etc where some surrealistic vision is required to break the photographic stiffness. (Would produce caricature on portraits) Starry and Sunflowers style have this option set less than half-way by default.
- Save Paint thickness Map (for some special effect in Photoshop etc...)
- Added Thick Paint option in advanced settings (changes the way how the canvas shows through paint - currently th effect is too subtle, will tweak it later)
Version 1.7
- Grayscale palette added
- Added Dry/Wet bar on interface to change physical characteristic of palette
- Ability to override the template Type on Advanced tab (no need to change template)
- Added roll-up button to groups for people with smaller screens.
- The finished preview display now looks same as the preview during painting (same type of resizing is used)
- Added Expressive Color Style for AOP templates (dynamically mixes realistic and expressive for each brush stroke)
- Added "Portrait" Palette to all styles (little more faithful colors than Photographic palette and less contrasty - probably better for faces where the style allows)
- Export Layered PSD with original image correctly formated as a bottom layer, good for further experimenting in Adobe Photoshop(tm) or anything that can read layered PSD.
- Added Erase/Repaint mask for output images - erase bad parts and restart the painting process. (The Erase background will be set to OFF automatically)
Version 1.5
- Defocus Mask
- will allow you to paint a defocus (blur) mask over disturbing areas of the image.
- Detail Brush Mask specify the area where detail brushes will be visible (and their strength as well).
- Ability to use the Detail Brush Mask for merging two different styles or colors.
- Register button bug for new AOPs.
- Added thin border option.
Version 1.4
- Expressive/Realistic palette settings for portraits etc. Will add subtle shades to the palette making the image look more realistic.
- The default setting makes every style now work a little better.
- Photographic palette for every style. Special palette that will dynamically create all need shades of the colors - for cases like portraits etc.
- Color adjustment for palette
- Pruning few redundant pallete variations to keep the installation size down.
Version 1.3
- Each preset has now variations. Those are not only change of palettes but they also change little bit of the painting character.
- Fix for template size limit
Version 1.2
- Added new preset Camille that borrows from Neo-Classical style
- Added watercolor paper as canvas choice
- Added Natural Borders for watercolor and illustration types to create drawing that naturally stops before the edge of paper
- Added Advanced tab and moved few settings there. Will be more important in the future.
- Fixed little glitch in Starry preset
Version 1.1 sb02
- Fixed potential crash from 1.1 that could happen on some input file dimensions
- Now it can use not cleared canvas also with different resolutions
Version 1.1
- Increased Default resolution (helps with normal photo). Many users were trying a normal snapshot which would not work well, (the idea is that image should have some paint-worthy qualities) so we increased the default resolution which would help with less than stellar photos. The default is set to Medium Resolution (2400x2400)
- Ability to change resolution from main interface, from 1600x1600 to 4000x4000 for special printing needs (large sizes)
- Current Stroke number now show in GUI not on the image
- Better explained Zoom buttons
- Save will offer JPG by default regardless of input format
- Continuous set ON by default
Preset: Cezanne with Max. Outline (Sketch)
