ZeusDraw has Snap to Grid, but it also has Snap to Point, Snap to Path for precision drawing, and Snap to Angle for drawing arcs and rotating objects.Īutomatic alignment guides let you line up your art-work by just dragging objects with your mouse.
ZeusDraw comes with a library of brushes, the means to create and add your own brushes to the library, and a way to save a set of brushes with your design file. A brush sample window provides a space to try out brushes and see the effects of different settings. The brush's path may be modified, and its attributes (type, width, color, and randomness) can be edited with a live (as you do it) display of the results.
But the brush strokes remain objects - they can be selected, moved, scaled, rotated, or deleted. When the object brush is used with a textured bitmap, you can obtain results similar to those in a pixel based paint program. ZeusDraw has a selection of vector brushes (Smooth Brush, Shaded Brush, Multi-Hair Brush), and it also has an object brush that allows you to paint with any piece of artwork - vector or bitmap. When you draw with a brush you see a close approximation to the final brush stroke as you draw, not a dotted line that is filled in later. When you move or rotate an object you see the object move or rotate, not its bounding box. Quartz and Cocoa let ZeusDraw show you what you are doing as you do it.
