Trouble Using Erase Brush Tool in Designer


Recommended Posts

If I

  1. draw a squiggle in Vector Persona
  2. switch to Pixel Persona
  3. select the Erase Brush Tool

I can erase a portion (or all) of the squiggle I just drew.

 

If I then

  1. switch back to Vector Persona
  2. draw a second squiggle in Vector Persona
  3. switch to Pixel Persona
  4. select the Erase Brush Tool

I can only erase the second squiggle--the first one is no longer editable.

 

If I

  1. draw two squiggles in Vector Persona
  2. switch to Pixel Persona
  3. select the Erase Brush Tool

Again, I can only erase the second squiggle--the first one is no longer editable.

 

That doesn't seem to be correct behavior, as I'd only have one shot at erasing something I drew earlier. What am I doing wrong? Might I have a preference in the Assistant Manager (something the Help files referred to in the EB Tool section) incorrectly set?

Hi Dashing Dave!

 

When you jump back into the Pixel Persona you will need to select the relevant squiggle ( curve ) from the Layers Panel to continue using the Erase Brush Tool. Alternatively, you could select the Layer the squiggles are on and use the Erase Brush Tool to create a Mask over the whole layer. Hope this helps!

Ah, yes--that was the key. I've been thinking that I had the entire layer selected rather than just the most recent curve. If I select the main layer all of my curves are on, then the eraser tool can manipulate each of them.

 

 

Thanks for the assist, Leigh!
