how to easily brush size &direction


Recommended Posts

Hi,

my question might be a little bit dumb but I have just started using Affinity again cause the newest version got rid of the problem i mentioned once on this forum, but there is still one thing that makes me want to colour sketches on photoshop and I would loove to switch 100% to Affinity. Is it possible to make the panel for changing the brush size and direction pop up right under the pen after clicking on the pen's button? I always change it through the pannel "more", but is is annoying, I am sure there is an easier way.

No. You can't make the panel pop up at the cursor. but…

Why not use keyboard shortcuts?
[ & ] to change brush size.
Left and Right cursor keys to rotate brush nib.

Or mouse modifier (which you could remap to your pen's button)?
Mac: Control + Option + Left mouse
PC: Control + Alt + Left and Right mouse

Drag to change the size, up/down changes the hardness.

Click to access spacing and flow.

Click again to access Rotation.
