ShoooJi 1.5

This application provides users with an immersive experience in Asian brush calligraphy. The undo function is purposely omitted to allow for moments of delight and surprise with each stroke created.

How to:

• [Clear] Button: Allows you to start afresh by replacing the current paper with a new one.
• [XX pt] List: Enables you to adjust the stroke width.
• [Load] Button: Uploads an exemplar image.
• [Save] Button: Saves your artwork.
• [Advanced] Button: Switches to Advanced Mode.

[Load] > [Select Exemplar Images]

• [Built-in images]: Choose from pre-loaded images.
• [External images]: (Beta) Allows selection of images (.jpg, .png) from your device.
• [Blank Paper]: Begin without an exemplar image.

[Advanced] > ON

• [Dip] Button: Simulates dipping the brush in ink (to refill the ink meter at the upper right).
• [Seal] Button: Adds your seal to the paper. A dialog box opens upon tapping this button, allowing you to place the seal by dragging and dropping.

Notice:

• When using the [Dip] Button, keep tapping and moving the brush as if it were dipped in ink.
• Rotating the device will clear the paper view; consider locking the screen rotation.
• Your artworks are saved in the DCIM/Camera folder. The file path is displayed via Toast upon saving.
• The use of [Load] > [External images] may take time to load images and generate thumbnails in folders with numerous files.
• The seal can present the first letter of the string being edited.
