Wildcardz Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Is there a way of configuring the pencil tool to make it work as it does in Illustrator? You know, doing a line and being able to kinda correct it when you draw on top of it or using the other tool—which I forgot the name of—that can make the path smoother? vervre 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cealcrest Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I thought Sculpt is supposed to do this, although I'm not able to replicate the result in the official tutorial, so I'm pretty bummed.... In like the last 15 seconds she redraws part of the line, but when I do this it just continues my line or even starts a new line. Whyyyyyy. https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/tutorials/designer/desktop/video/301804593 Quote 2019 MacBook Pro 16” | Affinity Designer 2 | Affinity Photo 2 | Affinity Publisher 2 2018 iPad Pro 12.9” | Apple Pencil 2 | Affinity Designer for iPad 2 | Affinity Photo for iPad 2 | Affinity Publisher for iPad 2 Years with Affinity: 5 ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/cealcrest/ FEATURE WISH LIST ✅ Vector Mesh Tool ✅ Shape Builder Tool 🥚True Vector Brushes 🥚Vector Pattern Fill 🥚Studio Link in All Apps APP WISH LIST ✅ Publisher 🥚2D Animation/Video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whyyyyyy. https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/tutorials/designer/desktop/video/301804593 I figured it out. Sculpt will not redraw a line if you start from the beginning or end nodes since those activate new or continued line respectively. If you start anywhere else on the line (node or not) it works. Of course, this is on my laptop, so I'm not sure if the iPad version has this feature, @Wildcardz. vervre and Wildcardz 2 Quote 2019 MacBook Pro 16” | Affinity Designer 2 | Affinity Photo 2 | Affinity Publisher 2 2018 iPad Pro 12.9” | Apple Pencil 2 | Affinity Designer for iPad 2 | Affinity Photo for iPad 2 | Affinity Publisher for iPad 2 Years with Affinity: 5 ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/cealcrest/ FEATURE WISH LIST ✅ Vector Mesh Tool ✅ Shape Builder Tool 🥚True Vector Brushes 🥚Vector Pattern Fill 🥚Studio Link in All Apps APP WISH LIST ✅ Publisher 🥚2D Animation/Video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
