Modify brush settings for existing strokes

You can only modify brush settings for strokes in the 3D scene. You cannot modify brush settings for strokes painted on the Paint Effects canvas.

To modify brush attributes for an existing stroke

1. Select the stroke. For details, see Select strokes.
2. Do one of the following:
   • In the Attribute Editor, click the brush tab (for example, tree2).
   • In the Channel Box, click the brush name under INPUTS.
     TipTo modify settings for several brushes at the same time (for example to change the Display Percent), select the brushes (see Select brushes in your scene), open the Attribute Spread Sheet, click the Keyable tab, then modify the settings. For information on using the Attribute Spreadsheet to modify settings, see the Basics guide.
3. Modify the settings. You can change the name of the brush attached to the stroke. This does not change the name of the preset brush used to paint the stroke. For details on the remaining brush attributes, see Define template brush settings.
