I was using the Scatter Brush with a custom shape from the clip board. You can see a larger view of the shape in one of the images below, the "J" shape. As I was using this brush the program would seem to freeze after a mouse up. Apparently there is some redrawing or re-calculation after a...

I just noticed that a file does not retain the View Settings. For instance, I've been tweaking the StartupFile so that it is to my liking, which includes using the grid, no snapping, safe zones--but those don't get saved. It is not a big deal, I could just save the file with a vector layer with thes...

I just wanted to say these proposed improvements to the Freehand tool sound awesome. I too am looking to storyboard within ASP.

I'd be your best friend if you did that :D I think you understand exactly what I'm interested in. The brush "line" thickness is actually a shape instead of a single line with varying stroke width. I completely understand it could be very difficult...but it wouldn't be very useful (for me) ...

Is the sharks coloring from an image or are you masking some crazy vector gradient action? If it is all vector gradients I'd love to see the work file or a tutorial, I don't know how you would wrap some of the gradients around the nose and such. Hmm...maybe some masking and layer or style shade goin...

The Freehand tool is nice. However, I would like a "brush" tool that will work with tablet pressure sensitivity that creates shapes instead of lines with varying thickness. Basically I really love Flash's brush tool and would love to be able to have that tool in this software. Furthermore,...
