1-180208 Free Tierazon Fractal Tutorial-Part 1

Open Tierazon.

Your regular Mandelbrot will come up. Read the tips below, and we will continue on.

If you wish to work on a larger image, right click on image and choose xy size, and enlarge from there. Close out with ok.

REMEMBER TIPS: If your image resizes back to the original small size, just right click, choose x-y size, and resize and ok.

If your image turns into a series of lines or horrible patterns, it may be because it’s too big. (Sometimes it will be just a solid color; and may be fixed or not by doing this.) To fix, right click, choose xy size, and then ok; and it will redraw properly. I’ve recently read that, drawing a box around it will do the same thing.

If you want to use FD options, you MUST use filters 3 first, above Dimension Variant.

If you want to use the color box, you must reduce your image size to 320x240 first. You can change back (resize) when you’re done coloring.

You can draw or zoom in off your page and move around your fractal in this manner. If you want to zoom out, right click your image, and choose fractal parameters and take a number or two off the front of magnify.

To reduce noise, try changing bailout from 4 to 1 (right click and choose fractal parameters) and m-set max from 128 to a lower number. Reduce by 10’s until you get a feel for what you like. If you do too much noise reduction, go back in and increase m-set max.

And NOW … on with this tutorial.

I’m taking a fractal art picture I did, and turning it into a bit map. Here’s the picture:

I want to see what happens if I start my session in Tierazon with this. It must be saved from a png to a Windows OR OS/2 bitmap (*bmp) to use it. I put it inside the Tierazon program in folder dated today.

Well. I learned one thing. As soon as you start playing with it, it goes back to a plain Mandelbrot picture.

Ok. This is about learning as we go, so I guess we learned something from this.

So let’s learn a little about the different draw menu items.

Let’s start with the first one. Draw 01. Not much of a change.

Let’s right click on the picture, and choose unique dialog editor. The formula says: z*z+c and n-set is pushed in.

Change the formula to x*x+c+c and choose ok. It looks further away. Add x*x*x+c+c. A slight change. Zooming in several times. Filters2; 15. Filters3; 27. FD options 9. Zoom. Pic 1-180208-1.
