Upon the above advice I downloaded Getpaint this morning. The download went as expected.

Many of the features seem familiar with my past experience with PhotoShop. I experienced some initial success which brings up a couple of questions.

I notice many of the tools have a single letter shortcut while others have the more usual Control + a key. I have not been successful in using a single letter to invoke the shortcut. Is another key such as a Control key needed with these shortcuts?

After messing with the tool menu, it disappeared but could be dropped down upon command but would pop back up. I discovered some icons on the top right that got the menus to reappear and stay "pulled down" as they did originally.

I was fond of the rounded rectangle tool in Photoshop but didn't notice it in Getpaint.

Is there a help file or guide that I should look at? I found a link to a tutorial written some years ago with good reviews but when I tried to access it, I hit a dead end. Maybe the tutorial has been removed, it was from 2008.
