Staff DWright Posted January 25, 2016 Staff Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hi HXY, Welcome to the forum, Can you please let me know the brushes that you have imported and is it with Designer or Photo Regards, Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted January 25, 2016 Staff Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hi HXY, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) I believe you're using Affinity Designer. If that's the case, click on the second icon on the top left of the interface right below the traffic lights to change to Pixel Persona, then go to the Brushes tab on the right and click the dropdown. The imported brushes should appear listed on the bottom.

Rainman Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 I have a similar problem, I can see brush sets that I have imported but an individual brush has apparently been imported to 'My Brushes' but I cant see that folder listed in the drop down menu, I'm sure there's an obvious answer...

This seems really interesting to me, do you know why certain brushes only work in certain personas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted February 24, 2017 Staff Share Posted February 24, 2017 Hi Marcusss, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Affinity Designer has two brush engines: one is vector based (relies on vectors paths for the brush strokes which can then be edited if needed) and is used in Draw Persona. The other is a raster based engine and is used in Pixel Persona and in Affinity Photo (our RAW converter/developer and photo editing app). This one doesn't rely on any vector paths. It's a more conventional raster painting engine. Each engine and their respective brushes settings/attributes is different and so the brushes only work with the engine they were created for.

Oh, I see. Thank you for helping! I am still a bit new to this software :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
