To adjust a brush to work on high resolution canvas

If you use a high resolution canvas and want your brush to keep the same appearance as on a standard resolution canvas, you can scale several properties of your brush at once, by using the Size hotkey located in the Special:Paint section of the Hotkeys editor. By default the Size hotkey is mapped to the letter S.

1. Choose a brush.
2. Press S on the keyboard, and drag the mouse to scale the Min/Max Radius, and Max Opacity of the brush at once.
