ZenMasta Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I wanted to try a custom pressure setting on a line. But when I go to the pressure area of the stroke panel, it seems like nothing I do affects my stroke. Also, sometimes when I try to move one of the handles they both move down at the same time. https://imgur.com/a/eqzgPb1 (gif of my problem) I have these 2 identical stokes. One is a copy of the other, and as you can see for some reason, one won't let me add the pressure or even a custom brush to it. Also, on the one where I could add the pressure/brush. Is there a way I can tweak that to make it more pointy? It would be nice if I could use a brush/pressure setting so I don't actually have to draw shapes which is what I first started to do... P.S. everytime I tried to include a gif in my upload it failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixelPest Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Can you check if you accidentally have "None" enabled here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To unlock the handles so that you can move one of them down, hold down the "Ctrl/Cmd" key and click on the blue handle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixelPest Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 The stroke should get thinner when both handles a dragged down simultaneously - which don´t happened. I´d like to have a look into that example file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZenMasta Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 @PixelPestUploaded my file. @G13RLtried pressing ctrl but it still moved both handles at the same time. Also, I dont know why but I did try to move the property window into view but it didnt get captured in the gif. lavender-vector.afdesign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomaso Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Your brush properties: A brush width of 1 px can have a maximum scope for pressure variance of 1 px, means from 0 to 1 px. If the size variance is set to 0% then there is no variance, at 100 % there is 1 px. You must at least increase the variance above 0%, with 100% its ends will be sharp.

ZenMasta Posted September 23, 2022 Author Share Posted September 23, 2022 That makes sense. I just feel like maybe the default shouldn't be 0 otherwise how would I really know that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
