1. Microsoft Paint

2. Microsoft Paint , also known as Paint , is a simple program that allows users to create basic graphic art on a computer. It provides basic functionality for drawing and painting in color or black and white, and shaped stencils and cured line tools.

3. Parts of the MS Paint Window

4. The Paint Window The paint window is the typical view once you open the app. It contains all the parts of the MS Paint such as the canvas, title bar, ribbon and zoom control.

5. Title Bar The title bar is found at the top part of the paint window. It is the name of your artwork or the image you are creating/editing. “Untitled” is the default name every time you create something new in paint. Title can be changed/edited once you saved your work.

6. At the left end of the Title Bar the first item shows a little paint palette . If clicked, this button opens a standard window menu, offering Restore, Move, Size, Minimize, Maximize and Close. Menu Icon

7. The next four items make up the Quick Access Bar, offering buttons for Save, Undo, Redo and Customize. If you click the dropdown arrow, you'll see other commands that you can add if you wish. Quick access toolbar

8. File Tab contains useful options such as Open a new paint window, Save and Print. Save as — is very important if you ever want to save a cutout without losing the rest of your picture. File TAb

9. Home TAb The Home Tab is open by default. The Home tab contains the Ribbon, from which tools and colors are selected.

10. View TAb Zoom in and Zoom out tools can be clicked repeatedly to get a closer or more distant view. The 100% option is handy when you've finished working in a very zoomed in view. One click and you're back to normal. Rulers and Gridlines are convenient if you want to align shapes accurately.

11. View TAb On the Display section, you can click for Full Screen View. You can also get a Full Screen View by hitting F11. In either case, come back to a normal view by pressing the Esc key. Thumbnail is only available when you are zoomed in. It lets you see how changes you make are affecting your picture in normal view. You can flick back and forth between the Home tab and the View tab as often as you like.

12. A resizable area where we can create, draw and edit images. It holds the work that will be saved into a picture. CANVAS

13. Status bar The Status Bar sits at the very bottom of the Paint Window. Cursor Position is helpful when you want to position something precisely . Selection Size: Shows the size of a selection you're making, or of an object you're drawing. Image Size : Shows the size of your entire picture, even if it is very large and not all visible in the window.

14. Status bar Disk Size - Once you've saved a picture, this will show its Size on Disk. In a very small window, this figure may not be shown. The Zoom Control is convenient if you're working in a zoomed-in view and want to zoom out. However, you can't zoom in on a particular spot, as you can with the Magnifier.
