Objective of this tutorial

In this tutorial we want to show the basic editing-functions of flames, i.e. creating and moving of transforms, often referred as "triangles".

Start the editor and a blank flame

First, start JWildfire, open the Fractal-flames-editor (if not already open), and resize and move the window so that you feel comfortable with the size and postion of the main-editor-area (the large black area).

Press the New from scratch-button to create a new fractal. A new fractal always starts empty, i.e. the display show only the background color.

Add the first transform

Press the Add-button at the Transformations-tab to add your first transform. A new entry in the transformations-table should appears, together with a triangle-symbol in the main-editor area, and some noise in the background of the editor (the current state of the flame-fractal)
