Affinity Photo: No Shape Jitter for Intensity Brushes?

[iconoclast]

Hi everyone!

During the last days I spent some time exploring the Brush Editor in Photo. It is really amazing, but I noticed some things I'm not sure if they are intended. Especially it seems that the Brush Dynamic "Shape Jitter" doesn't work with Intensity Brushes, Image Brushes and Brushes from Selection. As far as I could see, it works fine with Round Brushes and Rectangle Brushes, but not with brushes that use custom textures. Shouldn't it?

Edit: I found this thread that seems to be related to the same topic, but it is still unanswered.

Windows 10, Affinity Photo 1.10.5.1342

Hi @iconoclast,

As I understand it, the Shape Jitter is not a supported property when using Intensity / Image brushes - but the UI & help file could certainly be clearer in this regard.

I'll get this logged as an improvement now, to see if this is something we can improve clarity on in the future

Hi Dan, thanks for the answer!

I supposed that this could be intended not to be possible, but I think that it would be nice if it would be. Would make brush design a little more flexible.
