Used to control the amount of spray
from Liquid Ink airbrushes when this
brush feature is tied to Wheel,
adjustments to the wheel on an
airbrush stylus (especially the Intuos
Airbrush Stylus) act like a needle
control on a real airbrush.
You can use the Depth controls in the

give Liquid Ink brush strokes the
appearance of height. Refer to “Setting
Impasto Controls” on page 173 for
more information about Depth
