But curves can be created with the Pen Tool in either app, & by using stroke pressure curves & stroke gradients could look like those shown in the Layers panel ... right?

Yes right, making coffee right now

Did Murfee say anything that impled the use of vector brushes? If so, I didn't recognize it, and the technique that Murfee described works perfectly well with pixel brushes in Photo.
but what i did not see, was that het top layer is a pixel layer
. need more coffee...….

Did you check in the guides manager the opacity of the guides?

In the layerspanel drag the texture layer inside the shape layer, you will see a thin blue line when it is dragged inside.

Try selecting the parent "(Symbol)" layer instead of one of its child layers.

R C-R: Even though Gargamel said “How can I change the size of my objects without using the keyboard?”, that’s a nice tip. Thanks.
in that case you can use the scrollwheel on the mouse

Yes, you have to buy a new license for windows.

Think I have it, Ok, say you want to add a 3mm stroke aligned to the outside.
- Type text
- Add a stroke 3mm outside aligned
- Convert text to curves
- Boolean add the letters in the subsequent group
- Expand Stroke
- Now add an centre aligned stroke to the expanded stroke
- Add the second stroke
- select all three layers and boolean add them together.
If you need it to be bang on you will need to subtract the width of the second stroke from the initial stroke so make the first stroke say 2.8mm and the second one .2mm, also make sure to select sharp corners if you need them on both strokes.
Why not use the centre aligned stroke, and double the size needed.
-
not shure if this is what you want
layer expand stoke, select all and a boolean add.
