setting line pressure after stroke creation

[NeoGeo]

I’m a noob at this and can’t seem to find a solution in the documentaion.  Shouldn’t I be able to easily set and vary the stroke width over its length in the stroke studio using the line pressure graph?  Shouldn’t I be able to do this for one or all of the strokes I have selected with the node tool?

Works with Pen and Pencil, not brush.

Which vector brush are you using and is the controller set to pressure

Edit - not with every brush. As seen here selecting a brush with a pressure setting allows further adjustment.

Ahhh thank you.  I am using the solid brush under the assorted brushes list.   I’m curious to know the reasoning behind not allowing this kind of control over brush strokes, from a UI design standpoint it’s very confusing to me to have access to the pressure graph if it’s not going to influence the selected stroke. It’s confusing not to be able to know, ahead of time, what kind of strokes can be controled by this and what can’t.  I would think, if not usable, that graph should just be grayed out or inactive.  

From a workflow standpoint I don’t see myself using the brush tool as much now, unless there’s a way to convert every line to be editible in the pressure graph.   I’m also using an Apple Pencil on a 2018 ipad pro.  Gotta say, beyond my stumbling confusion with the pressure graph, I love this app and how easy it is to figure everything else out. The tutorials are also out of this world good
