You can view the inside of us choose to stay with the colors we choose to paint, and move the pointer to see the result toward the ends, top and bottom.
Its use is very simple
While the application is in English its use is very intuitive, and no problems handling.
First choose the color family with whom we wish to experience:
Then shrinks to a more varied menu, from colors previously chosen family and hope to process the image, which can take several seconds.
Once the above, we get a picture of a bedroom with the color chosen, and with the same colors combined. Here you can change the tone of the main wall, secondary walls, moldings, and sky, from the top of the image. While the bottom is where you change your environment.
A very useful and fun tool that we can test color combinations, plus fun and experience a long time.
