I use a wacom Art Pen, and it's maddening to have to CONSTANTLY open up brush creator to stop it from using stroke trajectory to control rotation every time I change a brush. Please help.

Hi chintimin, Please make sure this option is selected in Preferences (it is ON by default): [img]https://www.escapemotions.com/community/uploads/posts/2024/07/42127/2024-07-08_12-07:20_Screenshot 2024-07-08 at 12.28.53.png[/img] Even if this option is ON, some brushes' rotation mode is locked. Just click the lock next to the Rotation in Brush Creator to disable it and save the changes as default (Ctrl+Shift+B).

Just letting you know, I'm still experiencing it defaulting to tilt and trajectory on rebelle 8.

[QUOTE="chintimin, post: 27075, member: 79241"] I use the option in the menu, it frequently doesn't work with the built-in brushes. [/QUOTE] Several of the brushes that come included with Rebelle use the lock that overrides global brush rotation mode with what is selected in the preset. This is typically done to ensure that the preset is behaving as intended, i.e. some presets are built around Follow Trajectory mode. If you wish to use them with Pen Rotation or Pen Tilt mode you have to uncheck the lock icon, then you can save the changes as a new default for the preset (using second icon from the left at the top of Brush Creator panel). Please let us know if you experience that after modifying a preset in this way it still switches to other modes than the one you have set it to use.
