Formats

Primitive can save its drawing in PNG, JPEG, or SVG formats. You can also set an output resolution to scale it up or down. SVG output consists of a single <rect> element for the background and <path> elements for each shape.

Tips

Press and hold the space bar to view the original image.

You can change most of the settings in the middle of a drawing. One interesting use of this is to draw some filled-in shapes first and then draw bezier curves on top to fill in the details.

Try hiding the toolbar and entering full screen mode to watch the program draw your photos!

Use the default working size of 256px to experiment and then bump it up to a large value when you're ready to produce a more detailed result.
