Navigating the Painter Workspace. The Painter 12 workspace is easy to use. Tools and functions are organized into menus, selectors, palettes and panels. The context-sensitive Property Bar allows you to choose art materials and change settings quickly. Painter’s panels (for instance, the Color Panels, Brush Control Panels, Paper Panels, Media Control Panels and Media Library Panels, Navigator, Clone Source, Layers, Channels, Auto-Painting Panels, Composition Panels, Scripts and Text panels) can be accessed from the Window menu.
