I have a copy of Painter Essentials and am trying out the full version demo. Even after using Essentials, there is still a considerable learning curve that can’t be helping sales.

In the Essentials version when one assigns one of the auto-paint variations, either with a certain brush-stroke, or in the manner of van Gogh, that function runs until the entire canvas has been altered. With the full version it runs a few minutes and quits, most of the canvas untouched. If I restart it will take up again where it left off, but, at this rate, it will take hours of hovering near the computer; I can’t simply leave it running all night and find it completed in the morning.

I prefer the additional options in the full version. Is there some way I’ve overlooked of setting the “brush stroke cycle” to run until the canvas is covered, or, failing that, for a particular length of time?

Thanks.

Yours truly,

John Mayer
