Tip

At top right, next to the Paste icon, there’s the traditional Undo icon, , and its counterpart,
Redo, . Use these to walk through your artistic regrets one by one. If that’s not fast enough for
you, the History icon nested in between the two is like a perpetual Undo. Its slider can rewind

the scale and the material—you get choices like polyamide, alumide,
rubber-like, steel, and so on—and Paint 3D gives you an estimated cost. It
also warns you if, say, the walls are too thin to properly print, and helps you

fix the problems.

The People app is Windows’ address book. It’s a centralized database of
everybody in your social circles: their email and mailing addresses, phone

numbers, and so on (Figure 8-23). In fact, when you select someone’s
name, the right-side panel even shows you any recent correspondence
you’ve had with that person, plus any upcoming events you’re both
attending.

Importing Addresses from Online Accounts

Delightfully enough, the People app can synchronize its contacts with

online Rolodexes that may be very important to you: your contacts from
