Graphic
Unlike bitmap drawing applications, which focus on editing the individual pixels of an image, vector designs are created using objects and paths. Vector paths, consisting of points, lines, and curves, can be painted and filled. Multiple paths can be used together to create detailed intricate objects, while multiple objects can then be arranged to create a larger design. A vector image remains crisp when enlarged, without any loss of quality. A bitmap version of the same image loses quality when enlarged. When launching Graphic for the first time, you will be presented with the Documents Browser displaying a few sample documents. Tap any document to open it. When objects are selected, the fill and stroke color wells update to the colors used by those objects. Changing the fill or stroke colors while objects are selected will change the objects’ colors. Besides colors, gradients and patterns, objects can be filled with images. Even text objects can be filled with images.
