Vector brush stroke proportions different to image used to create brush [resolved]


Recommended Posts

Background:
I’m working in AP, in Designer persona. In the screenshot below, the two yellow crosses are the same. I’ve used one of them (without the yellow fill) to make the vector textured image brush shown on the screenshot. When I paint with my new brush I get the line of white crosses - I’ve adjusted the width of the stroke to match the height of the yellow cross.

My problem:
Each white cross in the brushstroke is expanded sideways by 130 % relative to the yellow cross. Adjusting the brush settings doesn’t help. Is this how it is, or is there a way to fix this ? Other than changing the proportions of the shape I use to make the brush ?

I found the problem to be an odd behaviour of lines. 

If I draw a 20 cm straight normal line and change it to a repeating vector brush then I get a certain number of repeat patterns.

If I draw a 10 cm straight normal line, change its length to 20 cm, then it looks identical to the 20 cm line above. But if I change it to a repeating vector brush then I get only half the above number of repeat patterns. They are stretched to twice their width.

I find this somehow logical, just not my kind of logic.
