Paint Objects and Images

A paint object is a Canvas X Draw object that contains an image. Paint objects are always rectangular and the same size as the images they contain. Images are pictures defined by pixels. A scanned photo, TIFF, or Photoshop (.PSD) file, and pictures you paint in Canvas X Draw are all images composed of pixels. Each pixel in an image is a solid color. Pixels can also be semi-transparent or completely clear. You can adjust the color, opacity, and transparency of pixels by using painting tools and commands.
