Fractorium aims to allow the artist maximum creative freedom with the minimal possible effort. To achieve this, the entire program was designed to be used with a mouse containing two buttons and a wheel. Using Fractorium with a less capable input device will most likely be cumbersome and is not supported.

In addition to being designed for a mouse, the user should have one hand on the keyboard with their fingers on the shift, ctrl and alt keys.

The F1, F2… keys can be used to switch between xforms. Keep your fingers ready for those keys as well because you will frequently be switching between xforms.

The plus/equals and underscore/minus keys can be used to cycle between xforms forward and backward, respectively.

Unless otherwise specified, every modification to the flame will result in the rendering process being restarted from the beginning.
