Wai Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Hello, I’m new in Affinity. I seem to be having a problem with the paint brush tool. here are the steps I did before the brush stopped working. 1. Draw some stuff 2. Grouped my sketches 3. Changed opacity of the group 4. Created a new pixel layer 5. Brush stopped working for this file I find it odd that the brush is not working only on this file. I’m using an ipad 2018.

DM1 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Sometimes brush adopts colour studio colour(white), no context menu colour , black). Check you are not painting with white.

Wai Posted February 18, 2019 Author Share Posted February 18, 2019 I've tried changing it as well and it ain't working. Remember when we switch files the brush setting retains? I've tried it on other files and even changed colors amd it's working. What's funny is even if i go back to the history even before the group happens, the brush no longer works for this file.

walt.farrell Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 You could attach the file here. Or if you can't do that because it's proprietary one of the staff members can supply a private upload link when they see this topic.

DM1 Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 If you turn off the wet edges setting (brush with drip below) on Context menu, the brush works (at least for me). Not sure why this is, maybe related to brush you are using. Maybe Mods can explain why. 3611A10D-C857-4FB0-A21F-B98D8EEB0A7F.MP4 Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

Wai Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Wow that is weird. thanks DM, at first it wasn’t working with mine when i followed your step. but I think I’ve accidentally fixed it when I colorpicked the white then black. it’s now working even with the wet edges turned on. I hope the devs could look into this bug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
