"To display the Pixel View: 1. Select the Pixel View tool from the Bitmap tool bar. The pointer changes to a magnifying glass when you move it over the drawing area. 2. Move the pointer to where you want to change pixels, and then click. The Pixel View appears. 3. Select the bitmap tool you want to use to change pixels. 4. In the Pixel View window, use any of the Bitmap tools to change pixels individually or in groups. "To change the Pixel View area: With the magnifying glass tool, click a pixel in the Pixel View window. This pixel becomes centered in the pixel view window. OR Click in the bitmap image outside the Pixel View window. Changing the Bitmap Color and Resolution You can change the color format (monochrome or color) and resolution (the number of dots, or pixels, per inch) of a bitmap. CAUTION: Increasing the resolution of the bitmap or the number of colors in the bitmap may overload Ensemble's memory. If this happens, you may lose data and be forced to restart the system. For example, you might want to change a 16-color image to a monochrome image if your hardware does not support color or if you want to reduce the storage and memory size of the image. Similarly, you might want to change a monochrome image to a 16-color image so that you can add color. You can also change the resolution of a bitmap. For example, you might want to reduce the resolution from 300Ądpi to 72Ądpi or to reduce the storage and memory size of the image. Similarly, you might want to increase the resolution from 72Ądpi to 300Ądpi for greater granularity so that you can edit the pixels at a finer level of detail. A higher resolution shows greater detail in a picture. "To change the format of a bitmap: 1. Select the bitmap you want to format. 2. Choose Bitmap Format from the Attributes menu.
