How to draw with the Brush tool
- In the Timeline view, select the cell on which you want to draw.
- In the Tools toolbar, select the Brush
tool or press Alt + B.
- In the Tool Properties view, set the Maximum Size to the desired brush size.
NOTE: If you are drawing with a mouse, your strokes will always be at their maximum size. If you are using a pressure-sensitive tablet, your strokes will vary in size depending on the pressure of your pen, ranging between 25% to 100% of the maximum size.
- In the Colour view, click a colour swatch to select a colour.
- In the Drawing or Camera view, start drawing.
NOTE: You can hold Ctrl (Windows/Linux) or ⌘ (macOS) while drawing to force your stroke to be a closed shape. This will automatically draw a straight line between the beginning and the end of your stroke.
