Annoying Stray Dab

I always use Stroke Angle when painting and a really annoying feature is as soon as the pen clicks on the tablet you get an unwanted, stray paint stroke equal to the length set in Brush Shape. Now…Continue

Presets Questions

I'm breaking into amending presets and have a couple of questions in the classic collection:1. How do I make a paint preset less wet?2. Some paint presets have more edge detail than others, where is…Continue

"Other paint programs typically use a small image as the brush for painting, end of story.
You can do that in Studio Artist, but you can also generate what we call 'virtual brushes', where what the user perceives as the brush is actually…"

I use SA in interactive pen mode with a brushes set to a minimum length using the brush shape parameter. This way I get to use them like true paint brushes where I control the stroke.I have tried amending so many brushes by scaling the brush source size, but the smaller the brush gets the worse it performs. Its like the spacing gets greater the smaller the brush is - you would think that the opposite would apply (there is no spacing applied in parameters).I have tried it on small canvases…See More

"I agree with you. The image still has a somewhat photo feel if that's what you mean. As you know,I always use paint strokes set to stroke angle, the reason for that is I find I have complete control of the painting, it's as if I'm…"
Philip Savage replied to Philip Savage's discussion Annoying Stray Dab"Thanks LiveArt.
That's a great workaround.
Now to change all my presets

"The start delay feature i was taking about does delay drawing until the pen has moved.
Actually, the start delay feature was primarily added to deal with path tracking in multi-pens. It's not currently an option for autodraw interactive. But…"
liveart replied to Philip Savage's discussion Annoying Stray Dab"try this, it should give a less noticeable stray stroke. Of course it does change the character of the stroke a bit. Still the general effect is there.
mods that I made:
in the path angle panel -
slew to 0
angle multiplier to 14.
you might want to…"
Philip Savage replied to Philip Savage's discussion Annoying Stray Dab"Yes, I am referring to autodraw interactive pen mode.
The way I paint is the same way that I would paint if I was using traditional materials, that is why the stroke angle is important to me. All of my presets are a single stroke…"
"If you want to post the specific preset file you are using i can take a look at it and maybe make some editing suggestions.

I assume we're talking about autodraw interactive pen mode here?
Regarding stroke angle modulation. When the pen…"
liveart replied to Philip Savage's discussion Annoying Stray Dab"I think that John will have to look at the code on this. email him a few presets that exhibit the issue."
Philip Savage posted a discussionAnnoying Stray Dab
I always use Stroke Angle when painting and a really annoying feature is as soon as the pen clicks on the tablet you get an unwanted, stray paint stroke equal to the length set in Brush Shape. Now this stroke would be fine if it was in-line with with the pen direction, but at the on-click stage the paint stroke doesn't yet know the direction it supposed to go. The angle of the stray stroke is always at 45degrees See the attached image.A workaround would be to set the paint stroke length to be…See More

Mark Gould posted a blog postAsking for Input about Generative Art
I'm writing a series of articles on generative art and seeking feedback if anyone is interested. The more I read it seems in a way the term itself is more in fashion, and a lot of the work has a certain style, rather than there being very much specific that sets it apart from other types of computer art. One might say that Studio Artist is one of the most significant "generative" art software programs out there! Part of what I'm trying to untangle (in my own mind of course,) is that it's hard…See More
