Mr. K Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 How do I close this brush stroke in AD? I want the ends of the brush stroke to meet without the gap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron P. Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 With the Node Tool selected, on the Context Toolbar at the top, go to the Action section, and press the Join Curves. You will need both curves selected for this. Quote Affinity Photo 2.4..; Affinity Designer 2.4..; Affinity Publisher 2.4..; Affinity2 Beta versions.

NotMyFault Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 This brush could intentionally have lots of light colored head and tail. In this Case, you may need to break the curve, and create an overlapping between start and end node to get rid of the visual gap. or copy the brush and modify the head/tail section to become a clean cut. you try to play with the brush settings. It would help if you could upload the file.

Mr. K Posted July 4, 2022 Author Share Posted July 4, 2022 I cannot find the adjustment that changes the distance the brush starts and ends from the corner. Looking at this further, maybe I will try to create my own brush. I don't think I can adjust the endpoints of the brush I'm using. I think that is locked into the brush when it was created.
