Tormy Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 I'm wondering if possible to start a line with a thickness (for instance 11 pt) and end it with a different one (for instance 3pt). Thank you.

walt.farrell Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 Have you tried using the pressure profile in the Stroke panel? (Or, in the 2.5 beta, the Line Width Tool, though there's a bug currently if you try to adjust the start or end node of a line. Edit: Fixed in 2.5.0.2449, but not available just yet.)

So if I go o set it at 11pt, it's the same for all the points Quote System: Prod.

See attached screenshot for an example. You can set the width of one end of the line exactly but it might be difficult to get the width of the other end just right because, as far as I know, you can't give it an exact value using this method (may be different in 2.5).

GarryP Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 You are using a Brush on that Curve. You might be using a Brush which cannot use the Pressure curve. What is the name of the Brush you are using and which Category is it in? Note: Full-screen screenshots are usually much better for problem diagnosis than partial screen-grabs. Quote

GarryP Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 Thanks for the screenshot. In your first screen-grab you were using a Texture Line Style on the Curve which means that you were using the Pen Tool with a Brush which is selected via the Brushes Panel. Not all Brushes use the Pressure curve which is why I asked which Brush you were using. However, in your later screenshot you are using a Solid Line Style but you don’t have the Curve selected so I can’t see what the formatting is for that. Select the Curve and change the Style in the Stroke Panel to Solid Line Style. Tormy 1 Quote

Then in the stroke panel I selected the brush instead of the line, and indeed it works. Thank you so much Quote System: Prod.
