Card Creator plug-in

The Card Creator plug-in is an adaptation of standalone Card Creator with some added functionality. This plug-in works within RealWorld Paint and can be installed from its Online Page.

Cards are made from user-supplied photographs using a card template. There is a built-in template, but users may download more templates from the page with standalone Card Creator.

How to use the Card Creator

After installing the plug-in (go to Online page, then Plug-ins tab, and click on Install on the Card Creator line), a new tab with the Card Creator icon appears on the left side of the main Window.

Photographs can be added to the template by clicking or double-clicking a region on the template or by dragging and dropping them on the region. Photographs can then be move with mouse or zoomed with mouse wheel.

The Save button

This button allows you to save the created card as an image. The saved image will be of slightly higher quality than what you see on the screen, because better resizing methods are used when generating the final image. You should add as many photos as needed for your card before you saving the image.

The Edit button

This button ends the card creating phase and opens the created card in an image editor. The more advanced tools in the image editor can be used to for example add text to the card.

The Template button

The Template button allows you to use a different template. Templates can be downloaded from the standalone Card Creator page. Each template uses a different number of photographs.

The small triangle on the right side of the Template button can be used to display additional options. It is possible to select one of the built-in templates or rescale a template. Advanced users may even open the template in a image editor and modify it.

You can add text to your card by clicking the "Edit" button. This will open the card in the full image editor and there you can activate the Text tool and use it.

Have you closed all RWPaint windows?

Vlasta, you are magic.
I guess i had not closed ALL the RWPaint windows. I thought i had shut down RWPaint, but obviously, i had not. Now have Card Creator icon and look forward to using it. Thank YOU!

I am glad it worked, in the future version the restart may not be necessary anymore, so that will make things simpler.
