postmadesign Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi, I would like to put two ideas up to discussion. I like working with AD, but also work with Manga Studio 5 a lot, and it has some nifty features that would be welcome in AD. First thing I like a lot is the vector eraser option. In MS5 you can draw on pixel and on vector layers. On the vector layer I can use the eraser to erase until intersection. This is cool as I don't have to be too fussy with overlapping lines. It works very well, and would be great in AD! I can also erase one line easily without affecting the other lines around it. 2nd thing that is quite great is the simplify brush. As a default the paths made with freehand drawing in MS5 have too many points, but using this brush cleans up pretty nicely, with a good range of options. Something like this would be a great addition to the pencil tool Come to think of it: what would be very welcome is more settings for the pencil tool, I think it is too basic now without any way of setting smoothness. Is this coming? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted May 2, 2015 Staff Share Posted May 2, 2015 Hi postmadesign, Yes, smoothing/simplifying paths is coming. I know MattP will revamp the pencil/brush tools later to make them more flexible. Regarding the vector erasing, i'm not sure if this is planned (on short term). I can see how this could be useful and may be added later eventually, but for now the focus is on completing our roadmap.
