Hot key for changing brush or stroke size?

[Otto Manuel]

Hi,

 When I draw I often wish there was a hot key that would let me more rapidly change the stroke width or brush width without moving my cursor up to the control bar.

 Is there a quick way to change the size with a keystroke?

 

Thank you!

I figured out that the "[" and "]" work on the Pixel Persona brush and eraser sizing.

That works great.

The ctrl+alt+drag left/right or ctrl+alt+drag up/down is a fantastic surprise to learn about. Nice job Affinity!

 

How about vector stroke weight? Is there a hot key system for stroke parameters?

Thank you.

the Vector Brush Tool supports the same keyboard & mouse shortcuts, however I'm not aware of any similar shortcuts when using the Pen/Pencil vector tools - my apologies!

Thank you for the info about the Vector Brush.
