+1 Another one of the "basic" features I'm greatly missing after converting from Illustrator. Smooth curves might work in some cases, but you can't even isolate its use to a few points, which could actually make it a lot more useful. Please, please add this to V2.

Oh, really? The instructions in the other version said that you had to load the bump map you wanted to use. And, indeed, it seemed to only work when I did that. This is why I was so surprised when the version you sent didn't require that. Idk what I was doing wrong, but I'm just glad it's working now. And thanks for the explanation of the gamma fix. That makes a lot more sense now.

@cgidesign It's just not nearly as robust as you want for even the most basic normal map generator. The feature should include the ability to flip axes of individual directions, adjust depth, and probably a smoothness slider at the bare minimum. And probably also a warning when your file isn't 16 or 32-bit depth. Also, the file that kirk23 shared works a lot better than the popular solution because you don't need to upload a bump map for the live filter to work. Kirk's version just works over the top of any image (as you would expect). The other version requires you to save your image, then upload it as a bump map in the live filter.

I thought that's what I was making with this post 😅. If not, where do I find the requested feature list?

@kirk23 Idk why, but I tried the same thing (using your file) with a radial gradient and my result is extremely noisy (your image looks reasonably smooth). It works if I apply a Gaussian blur set to 6 px. This is a totally unrelated is now. Why is the gradient so stepped in a 32-bit document? Yeah, it's really weird that they've implemented a feature for adjusting normal maps, but don't have a feature that creates them. Edit: I figured it out. I had to uncheck "Dither gradients" in my performance settings.

This is one of the "workarounds" I mentioned in my post. The results I get from it are super janky.

I just switched from Adobe products and this feature is desperately missed. There are workarounds, but the fidelity of these solutions are poor and not really useable. Are there any plans to implement this feature? I saw that there is a feature which allows one to change the rotation, flip axis, and adjust intensity. That's helpful, but I've seen a lot of people asking for this in V1, so I'm hoping it'll be added in V2 soon.

When nodes have been modified with the Corner Tool, the shape doesn't accurately update when moving the nodes. Is this a known issue that's being worked on? I'm using the latest version (2.0.0) on an up-to-date Windows OS. It updates when you move the shape as a whole or when you zoom in, but those are steps you shouldn't have to do when you're trying to stay in a flow state.
