Tools Preferences

Brushes

  • Select the last paintbrush when a color is picked from the palette - Enable this option if you want the last used paintbrush to be automatically selected after picking a color from the Color panel.

  • For the Pen Eraser always use the last tool instead of the eraser - Enable this option so that the pen eraser remembers the last used tool.

  • Show wet layer when using the Water or Dry tool - Enable this option if you want the Water and Dry tools to automatically activate the 'Show wet' mode.

  • Always use "Pen Tilt / Rotation" instead of "Follow Trajectory" in Brush Creator - Enable this option so that the brush shape follows the pen tilt or rotation even when "Follow Trajectory" is selected for brush rotation.

  • Save Dirty brush colors to Color history - Enable this option if you do not want the dirty brush colors to get saved into the color history.

  • Automatically switch to Blend mode after using Paint, Paint & Mix, or Paint & Blend mode for wet media - Enable this option to make your painting tool automatically switch to Blend mode after you use Paint, Paint & Mix, or Paint & Blend mode.

  • All Paint tools share the same paint mode - Enable this option if you want to use the same paint mode for all paint tools. When you set a paint mode for one paint tool, this mode will stay selected for the rest of the paint tools. The only exception is when you select a brush that has a saved paint mode - in that case, the saved paint mode rewrites this setting for that selected brush.
