To load a 1-Rank nozzle file
1

3 Choose a nozzle from the Open dialog box, and click Open.
4 You can now paint with the nozzle.
To load a 2-Rank or 3-Rank nozzle file
1
Choose Window Media Library Panels Nozzles.
2
In the Nozzle Libraries panel, click the Nozzle options button , and choose Load Nozzle.
3 Choose a nozzle from the Open dialog box, and click Open.
4 In the Item Width and Item Height boxes in the Nozzle Definition dialog box, enter the values you set
in the nozzle file. These values describe the grid cell size.
If you are not sure about these values, first open the nozzle file, and choose File Get Info. The File
Information dialog displays all the information you need. For example, “Image hose 3 by 2 items
(height 100, width 100)” indicates that this is a 2-Rank nozzle, with three image elements in Rank
1 (horizontal progression) and two image elements in Rank 2 (vertical progression). Item width and
height are 100 pixels each (grid cell size of 100 by 100 pixels).
5 In the Index Rank box, enter 2 for a 2-Rank nozzle and 3 for 3-Rank nozzle.
6 In the Rank columns, enter the number of image elements used in each rank of the nozzle file.
If this is a 2-Rank nozzle file, enter 1 in the Rank 3 column.
If the values you enter do not describe the file, Corel Painter won’t accept them. In other words, the
“number of items” in Rank 1 (horizontal progression) multiplied by the “item width” must equal the
width of the nozzle file; the “number of items” in Rank 2 (vertical progression) multiplied by the “item
height” must equal the height of the nozzle file.
Remember, you still need to describe the indexing rule for each rank.
Corel Painter needs the information you enter in the Nozzle Definition dialog box to index images
correctly.
