Vector brush names


Recommended Posts

- show active brush highlighted in the Brushes Panel when particular vector object is selected or

- show the active brush name in the Brush Properties window (it is actually present when you select particular brush in the Brushes Panel and start drawing – see attached picture A – but if you change object that has another vector brush and open the Brush Properties window (see picture B) the name is gone.

Exactly! I find this very annoying, too and it's long overdue for correction/implementation!

AGREE!!!   Brush organization is really not very good! The app should highlight the chosen brush in the brush panel when the curve is selected AND the name of the brush should display at the top when selected.  This is causing me such SLOW DOWN in creation time.

The Brush panel should FOLLOW (highlight) (link to) the selection on the canvas (should be able to turn on/off "follow selection" in preferences !!!)

Hi @iorbita and welcome to the forums,

Select 'Show Brush Names' in the Brush Panel context menu...

These were the full list of brush improvements made in v2 (which you may already have read)...

It would be a nice addition to be able to identify which vector brush was used for a particular stroke by having the brush auto-selected in the brushes panel when clicking the respective layer in the layers panel...
