Clumpiness
The Clumpiness slider applies a
random variance to the thickness of
each bristle. Clumpiness is
proportional to Thickness. This
produces an effect that looks like some
of the bristles have clumped together.
The Clumpiness slider controls how bristles
“clump together”. Top=0%, bottom=100%.
To set clumping of bristles:
1 On the Stroke Designer page of
the Brush Creator, click Bristle.
2 Move the Clumpiness slider to the
left to reduce the amount of
clumping together of bristles.
Move it right to increase
clumpiness.
Hair Scale
The Hair Scale slider controls the
density of bristles in the brush dab
and, therefore, the number of bristles
in the dab.
The Hair Scale slider controls the density of
bristles in the brush dab. Top=410%,
bottom=990%.
To set bristle density:
1 On the Stroke Designer page of
the Brush Creator, click Bristle.
2 Move the Hair Scale slider to the
left to reduce the amount of bristle
density, creating a fine-hair brush.
Move it right to increase density.
Scale/Size
The Scale/Size slider controls the
degree of Size variation applied to the
bristles of a brush. At 0% there is no
size change applied to the bristles.
Setting this slider to a value greater
than 0% creates a set of scaled
iterations of the dab.
At 100% Size/Scale, when the brush
size changes, the bristles scale in
proportion to the size. At 8% Size/
Scale, when the brush size changes,
the bristles remain a constant absolute
size.
The Scale/Size control is invalid if
there is no size range (that is, Size
Min set to 100%).
