Vector brush behavior is off

[jhazel0705]

So this evening I am building some vector stoke style brushes in Affinity Designer...... and 2 things occurred that have me scratching my head

 

1. If I set the tail and head within the stroke limits and pull a line.....NOTHING shows on the screen ...If I move the head and the tail offset in then it shows up ( this is issue 1)

 

 

2. It appears as if the stroke panel is dictating size....notice that in the screenshot the stroke panel is set to 56 P{TS, even though the brush width is set to 200 PX....does the brush width have precedence over the stroke panel...or is in the other way around? 

 

3rd and final issue .....if I get the line to show by adjusting the head inside....and I raise the pts up above a threshold ....I get a weird behavior where it just skips to another level....notice where the arrow is below ....that is not the shape of the brush 

 

I have been building brushes for quite a while and have never had issues like this ......any thoughts

Hi @jhazel0705,

Could you attach the brush you are using for points 1 and 3?  

For point number, i suspect this will be DPI related and if you change the document DPI to 72, the stroke will appear the correct size
