working with Paint Brush Load

Hello, I have found working with paint brush load very exciting but have come upon what seems to be a none-existing entry in paint fill to make it effective. In the manual, when discussing brush load, type MSG, you say one needs to enable the 'brush load' option in the Paint Fill Setup for one's brush load settings to take effect. However, as I go to Paint Fill, I nowhere find 'paint source' listed as an option, only 'brush image'. Is this a mistake in the manual? In short: in what menu item of the Paint Fill Setup is 'Paint source' to be entered. As what I see, that option is not enabled in Paint Fill. Thanks for suggesting how I could make this work.

  • Yeah, the Brush Load control panel and what you can do with it in the paint synthesizer is pretty powerful.

    So, how do you access it in the Paint Fill Setup control panel?

    Pretty straightforward. My default open at startup paint preset uses, it, as seen here.

    So it's being used for the Fill From Modulation in this particular preset. And you can see there are several different options for how you can use it there if you look in the popup of choices.

    Now a much simplier apporacah is to just use it as your Fill From source.

    So what i just discussed is what the manual was talking about. It needs to be setup in Paint Fill Setup to be used in Fill From or Fill From Mod (or both if you want to get weird maybe).

    It's not actually a Fill To option right now, so i suppose i should add that to my to do list.

Since the Forum is going away in June, has anyone started to make a copy of all the stuff in the Tutorials forum?I've made copies of some of the tutorial material on the main site, but haven't looked at the Tutorial Forum yet.I'm going to continue copying as much as I can for my own personal use anyway, but if anyone else is doing it, or has already started doing it, please let me know.Maybe we can co-ordinate our efforts. ps can't ..... believe John, would let this happen without so much as a…

Studio Artist is in Italy!

I was crawling the streets of Matera, Italy today and may have discovered where SA is hiding!  (see attached photo). Not meaning to make light of this great, sad mystery. But I just couldn't resist as I try to make sense of what's happening. Losing my connection to SA, Synthetik and John has been a great sadness... and if real, ends a monumental era in my creative life. love,~Victor
