I’m trying to create a brush that draws a thin line when I move my stylus horizontally and a thick one when vertically (or swapped; thick when horizontally and thin when vertically).
From “b) Basic-5 Size”, I changed the following, but the result below which I drew with one stroke from the top left was strange. I thought the line would be smooth, but instead there were something like ink spots.
Disabled “Flow”, “Pressure” in “Size”, and “Strength” in “Texture”.
Enabled the “Drawing angle” setting in “Size” with the following graph.
I know I can change the tip to an ellipse, but I want to implement the brush by changing the other parameters for my better understanding of brush making.
Does anybody know how to fix it?
Thanks!
Krita: 5.2.2
(It might be similar to "drawing angle" sensor, but I didn’t add a new comment there because mine is not MyPaint one.)
Hi.
I wouldn’t use the angle of the drawing for that, unless the stroke is perfectly horizontal or vertical, the inputs will jump very abruptly (I suppose) that’s why the spots. Instead, I would leave the size controlled by the pressure and use the proportion also regulated by the pressure but with an inverse curve of the size, both simple linear.
Yeah, using the pressure may be a better option. I need to get used to adjusting my pen pressure. Still, I suspect this is a bug in Krita because the stroke sample on the left of the pen name is not smooth. Also, I don’t understand why the spots are generated even if the drawing angle sensor is snappy, and I’m trying to modify the source code to get the actual values of the drawing angle.
Sorry for my really late reply, and yup, I already have a rectangular brush tip with which I can draw thin and bold lines. Still, I’m trying to figure out what’s going on there with the drawing angle setting.
