Brush tool in Vector layers

[SyberOwlz]

Hi! I’ve been thinking about this topic so now I want to share this idea. It would be great if your could use your favorite brush tool on a vector layer. This would help artist who want to transform any part of their art that has by enlarging it without losing it’s quality.
An example of a program that uses this is Clip studio paint. I personally would find this useful because I sometimes draw my line art too small so have to either have to redraw it or keep it small.
Thank you for reading and thank you krita developers for all your hard work!

I think this is already requested

The ability to use any brush on a vector layer

Hello, I experienced that it’s possible to use some regular brushes on vector layers, in such a way that the brushstrokes become vectorized, with nodes appearing to adjust those strokes. I don’t know if this is asking too much, but I’d like to see it in Krita, that is being able to paint freehand on a vector layer, and not only draw or write with conventional vector tools. Thanks

This is planned, btw, just, you can’t do everything at once. We need more developers

Yes. Ideally we’d find a volunteer who wants to work on this, because the sponsored developers already have todo lists that, when put end to end, would reach from Amsterdam to Tokyo…

Vector engine - brush, fill and eraser

I have been reading alot of feature requests lately and I was thinking on solutions to solve them conceptually and a common trait that has raised was the lack of simplified information to do clean operations over it because it is over pixel information compared to a vector based one. With a vector basis to operate on some stuff would be much more easy to tackle. Such as: creating line art with fixed width meant for printing. extend end line points to close line art fill gaps easier. easier …

@halla I know this thread is a year old, but have things changed since then? Will we possibly see vector brushes for animation in 5.3?
