Watercolor Brush tool options
Edit workspace
Watercolor Brush tool options include
• Shape — defines the shape of the brush tip
• Size — defines the size of the tool head in pixels
• Thickness — defines the aspect ratio of the tool head. This setting
is active only when the Fixed angle Head Tracking option is
chosen.
• Rotation — defines the angle of head rotation in degrees
• Head Tracking — determines whether the tool head bends around
the path of the user’s stroke, or remains at a fixed angle
• Viscosity — defines the rate at which the material on the brush is
applied, and thus the length of the stroke before your paint runs
out
• Firmness — defines the amount of splay in the brush, how the
rendered line gets wider with more pressure, and how well it
penetrates the surface on to which it is painting
• Bristle size — affects the underlying noise function for texture and
application of paint
• Auto Clean check box — cleans the brush and reloads it with fresh
paint at the start of a new stroke
Note: When unmarked, the brush head is not cleaned at the start
of the stroke. Instead, the dirty head has a small amount of the
current color added to whatever dirty head state exists from the
previous stroke.
• Clean button — cleans the head and start the next stroke with
fresh paint or pigment
• 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.
