Painting and drawing with the Art Media tools 619

• Trace check box — allows the current Art Media tool to select the

pigment or paint color by sampling the data below the center of

the brush regardless of the layer type.

Important! When you hold down the mouse button to begin the

stroke, note that a single sample is performed and the resulting

color is used for the duration of the stroke.

Using the Chalk tool

The Chalk tool lets you create consistent, dry media over the course

of a stroke. The pigment penetrates the canvas texture according to

the pressure setting you choose. The Chalk tool does not have a bristle

component to the stroke; instead, it is applied with a flat or angled

edge that is affected by the texture of the canvas.

Chalk tool options

Edit workspace

Chalk tool options include

• Shape — defines the shape of the chalk tip

• Size — defines the size of the tool head in pixels

• Thickness — defines the aspect ratio of the tool head

• Rotation — defines the angle of head rotation in degrees

• Head Tracking — defines whether the tool head bends around the

path of the stroke, or whether it remains at a fixed angle

• Trace check box — allows the Chalk tool to select the pigment

color by sampling the data below the center of the tool regardless

of the layer type. (This feature works much the same way as the

Clone Brush’s Sample Merged tool option).

Important! When you hold down the mouse button to begin the

stroke, note that a single sample is performed and the resulting

color is used for the duration of the stroke.
