keneseuu Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Hello, I've just started to use Affinity Photo thru trial period and upon testing out the program, I noticed the hard brush edges isn't that smooth, it is by default settings, though I tried to play around with it but no luck fixing it. I'm not sure if this is a bug or I just have to tweak some settings. Please see image below. Quote
R C-R Posted March 24, 2020 Posted March 24, 2020 Hard edged brushes are not smooth because they do not apply any anti-aliasing to make their edges appear smooth. If you want smooth edges, reduce the hardness of the brush.

Not sure with this but as I've seen in this post by a mod (stokerg), his brush are fine, don't know how he achieved that though. I've tried the suggestions in the entire thread but can't get good result. Quote
Dan C Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Hi keneseuu Try adjusting your spacing for the brush as this can also help reduce jagged strokes in AP. Quote
keneseuu Posted March 25, 2020 Author Posted March 25, 2020 Hi, that image above's spacing is already set to 1% Quote
Dan C Posted March 25, 2020 Posted March 25, 2020 Thanks for letting me know, the post you have linked to from Stokerg is using Affinity Designer, not Affinity Photo - which uses smooth Vector, not Pixel brushes. You'll need to adjust the Hardness of your brush to achieve this look in Affinity Photo, my apologies. Quote
