Creating custom strokes
You can use the Edit Stroke dialog box to change specific stroke characteristics.
The Edit Stroke dialog box has three tabs: Options, Shape, and Sensitivity.
The stroke preview at the bottom of each tab shows the current brush with the current settings. The current pressure-
and speed-sensitivity settings are reflected in the preview by a stroke that tapers or fades or otherwise changes from
left to right.
To open the Edit Stroke dialog box:
1 Select Stroke Options from the Stroke Category pop-up menu in the Property inspector.
2 Click Advanced.
The Edit Stroke dialog box opens.
To set general brush stroke options:
1
On the Options tab of the Edit Stroke dialog box, set the ink amount, spacing, and flow rate. Higher flow rates
create brush strokes that flow over time, as with an airbrush.
2 To overlap brush strokes for dense strokes, select Build-up.
3 To set the stroke texture, change the Texture option. The higher the number, the more apparent the texture
becomes.
4 To set texture on the edges, enter a number in the Edge Texture text box and select an edge effect from the Edge
Effect pop-up menu.
5 Set the number of tips you want the brush stroke to have. For multiple tips, enter a Tip Spacing value and select
the color variation method. You can select Random, Uniform, Complementary, Hue, or Shadow.
