Start out with 2D images and transform them into 3D content in seconds
Rumors suggests the firm will launch software at event on Oct. 26
It's been more than 30 years since Microsoft introduced the world to Paint, and now the software is set for an update that makes it more useful in today's world.
A leaked video has revealed a new version of the application with a new 3D mode that lets users draw directly into the program via a touchscreen and stylus.
The new Paint Preview offers an interface that combines 3D models, 2D images, stickers and a community of tools for creating professional looking 3D content.
Rumors suggest that Microsoft may roll out the new program at an event on October 26, when the firm is planning a launch of other technologies, possibly including a desktop PC, reports The Verge.
Microsoft first released Paint on Windows 1.0 in 1985, which at the time only supported two colours at the time – black and white.
The application was never meant to be a go-to tool for artists, but rather a free program that helped users become acquainted with using a mouse and graphical user interface.
The most recent version only lets users draw simple images with a virtual paintbrushes and predefined shapes - but that is all set to change.
'We have completely redesigned the app and it is packed with cool new features,' the video showing the program says.
