If I have AaLiasing checked on my brush pen...should that be only place its checked?
should i uncheck it when using the transform tool on what I've drawn with the brush pen that has it checked ?

thanks

There is no pat answer to this question because it all depends on what kind of line you draw with and using which tool. The best gage is to go by trial and error and always eyeball the result at 100% real size. The result of not AAing a transfer most often shows as a line made of looping shapes resembling a string of real German frankfurters.

ahhh - ok will look for that... on the other hand too much AAliasing makes the art fuzzy...
( frankfurters or fuzzy) at 100 % ...

Right, so I often prefer not using AA, because later I can draw over it if the loops bother me. In a raster program you have to accept the nature of the beast, or learn to draw without making mistakes. :)
