Paint brush lines not showing up when drawing **Pixel Mode Specific**


Recommended Posts

I'm experiencing an issue specifically in Pixel Mode where, when I draw with the paint brush, the lines don't appear until I mouse over a particular section. I have attached a video (sorry for the quality) showing what happens in pixel mode compared to a basic program like Paint, where the lines show up instantly.

I just tried the vector brush tool in Vector Mode and that seems to draw live, so it's only Pixel Mode where I'm experiencing this issue. The line I drew is there, but it doesn't appear until it's hovered over in some way.

Does anyone have insight or a fix for this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Its a known issue in case a pixel layer is nested to a Layer layer.

Hi @natassiaashley,

Sorry to see you're having trouble!

As mentioned above, this is unfortunately a known rendering issue when painting on an artboard within a Group or Layer container.

I will be sure to 'bump' this report with our developers for you now.

In the meantime I'd recommend moving the Pixel layer outside of the Layer container whilst painting, and then move it once complete. Equally, refreshing the canvas by zooming also forces the stroke to redraw on the canvas.

I hope this clears things up :)

Please note -

I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible.

Many thanks!
