Automatically deactivate PAPER after using Custom Brush

Post by D.T. Nethery »

I notice that when I use a custom brush which makes use of the Paper texture ,the Paper texture remains active after I deselect the custom brush and return to using a regular pen tool that does not have any texture. It is not difficult to turn off the Paper, but sometimes I forget to turn it off and it results in me drawing a stroke or two before I notice that Paper is still active, so I have to undo and redraw the stroke(s).

I think the behavior should be that when a custom brush (which uses Paper) is deselected then the Paper texture should be automatically deactivated.



This screencap shows the issue , but it does not only occur with this one brush ('Asaf Dry Brush') , it happens with other custom brushes which have Paper activated.

Same problem when switching to filled tools or eraser :) I agree that paper should follow the tool setting and that we don't want it always on

It has been added to the to-do list and yes it should take all tools into account :)
