preferences: add option to remove/hide brush outline


Recommended Posts

I would also like to be able to use the paintbrush in Affinity Photo where I can set the outline of the brush invisible in the preferences!
Why? Because I want to make screen captures that will serve as brush transitions, moving masks, etc. to use in my video compositions.

Hopefully you will consider this, to install anyway.

really need the OFF switch here 

As mentioned above, in V2 you can simply press the CapsLock key, and you will have a cross-hair rather than the brush outline.

I know that but for me the cross-hair is worse then the brush outline. As drawing on paper with a real pencil,.. you don't need a reference to where the point will touch,... At least the circle has a value in showing the size of the brush,.... but with precise work especially its just disturbing the work process.
