As you work, don’t forget you can Undo (press Ctrl+Z), “taking

                           back” the last painting maneuvers you made. For fine detail work,
                           zoom in using the lower-right magnification slider (or the zoom
                           controls on the View tab).


                Paint can open and create several different file formats, including BMP,
                JPEG, and GIF—every file format you need to save graphics for use on a

                website.




                  Tip
                  Paint also offers a nifty way to create wallpaper. After you create or edit a graphic, open the File
                  menu. Choose “Set as desktop background.” From the submenu, choose Fill, Tile, or Center to
                  transfer your masterpiece to your desktop.




                Print 3D


                This little app (in your Windows Accessories folder) is intended for people
                who have access to a 3D printer, one of those machines that “prints” small,
                solid objects out of plastic. Hit Browse to load up a 3D model file (see “3D

                Viewer”); inspect it, enlarge it, and (assuming your PC has the correct
                drivers and software for the 3D printer) hit Print to begin the long process
                of printing.




                Quick Assist

                You use this app (in your Windows Accessories folder) to let some
                technical expert take control of your PC by remote control, so she can look

                around and help you troubleshoot. Or, if you’re the technical expert, you
                can take control of her computer. Details are on “Quick Assist”.
