Stroke properties and setting anchor points

[MtotheC]

Hi, I have two concerns:

1. Stroke properties don't give brush's name 

2. When using pen tool I want to lay down all smooth anchor points (as opposed to the default sharp anchor points) when outlining a placed image

thanks

Hi MtotheC

 

The name of your Brush is displayed at the top of the Stroke properties window (see screenshot one). You can also smoothen out anchor points by selecting the Nodes in your line with your Node Tool [A] and then clicking the Smooth button at the top of the app (see screenshot two).

Great,

however, I wish to set all smooth nodes.  Its tedious to set a node, scroll to the smooth icon, click it, edit the handles, then set another node, scroll to the smooth node, and repeat.

Is there a key command or setting in which I can set primarily smooth nodes?

As well, I used a brush in Affinity Photo to add pixel shading and cannot locate the stroke option to then locate the the properties

Any help here?

thnx
