antonkudin Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Bitmap brushes i made a while back for pixelart are buggy: some don't paint, some are wrong. It looks like if pixel brush had odd size it would work incorrectly. You can see 1px don't even register and 21x21 brush that is diamond-shaped checkerboard paints a blob instead of checkerboard. Brushes file attached. Using pixel tool, obviously. Pixel art.afbrushes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antonkudin Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Thanks for the update @Gabe! Also, am I dumb or is there no way to make brushes that are not just color stamps now? I make Image brush or brush from selection and both are not affected by tool color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I make Image brush or brush from selection and both are not affected by tool color. Brush From Selection command creates an Image Brush with no option of creating an Intensity Brush. However @James Ritson revealed that if the Image Brush is made from a selected region of a Mask object instead of Pixel object then the Image Brush will behave as if it is an Intensity Brush, and so you can: make the required pixel selection do Rasterise To Mask do Brush From Selection undo the Rasterise To Mask Or: do Rasterise To Mask cmd-click the Mask's thumbnail to make a pixel selection do Brush From Selection undo the Rasterise To Mask A sadly typical Affinity rigmarole where things could be so much more straightforward.

moi.cool Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 This is the problem with the beta version. The pixel tool is currently only available in the official version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Image Brush keeps its own colours but an Intensity Brush uses the greyscale values of the image as an opacity map, with whatever base colour you choose to apply.
