We've taken a look at how to control the Image Hose and what content comes out of it.…Now we're going to take a look at that content which is in the form of nozzle…files, and I'll just show you a couple of them, and then we'll get into, how do…you create one of these?…And let's go over to the Content Selector and drop down to the third button, which is…our nozzle file selector.…And let's just grab this one and I'll just paint with it a bit.…So I'm controlling it by pressure and it's coming out in a random fashion.…
And you can see what happens is, now I'm actually drawing with these really…interesting kind of three-dimensional cubes.…And how else would you get some kind of interesting font that does this unless you…had a tool like the Image Hose to do it?…That's where the power of the Image Hose is, is that anything can become content…and in this case, just playing around with it, it struck me that it's actually…an interesting expressive mark-making tool, in this case, that I can control…through pressure, and it just comes up with a kind of content that you would…

Q: When I double-click the John's Smart Brushes.brushcategory file as shown in the Chapter 8 movie "Understanding the Underpainting palette," the brushes do not install. Instead I get the message "There is no application set to open this document."
A: This is because your operating system does not recognize the .brushcategory file type. This can be circumvented by selecting the file, right-clicking, and choosing "Open With…".
If Painter 12 is not in the list, use "Other…" to locate and select Painter 12.
The file will be read by Painter and the brush category will be installed.
