As
in the Paint module on the Smoke, you can paint with either
a pen or a mouse, and access various pressure settings.
To
apply a brush stroke:
Select
an option from the Paint Tools box (or press Q).
Select
an option from the Paint On box to apply the stroke to the current
frame, all frames in the sequence, or the current frame and subsequent
frames.
Select
the Result (F4) or Output Matte
(F4 F4) to set
the view where you are painting.
If
you want to paint on the result and output matte simultaneously,
enable Both.
Click
a brush to select it.
TipAlthough you cannot create custom brushes
in Batch Paint, you can do so in Paint module on the Smoke and
then switch back to Batch Paint to use them. See
Creating a Custom Brush.
If
you will reveal a source on the image, select the source in the Sources
list. See
Revealing Sources.
To
change the colour, click a colour pot. If you are painting on the
output matte, the brush colour is grey with an equivalent luminance value.
TipAs an alternative to using the colour pots,
you can designate the colour under the pointer as the current brush
colour by pressing the left Ctrl key
and clicking on the canvas.
Click
and drag on the canvas to draw a stroke.
NoteDownstream context views are not automatically
updated as you add strokes, since this would cause performance degradation.
To force an update, click the Update button or press U.
Use
the eraser end of the pen if you are using the stylus to erase strokes
that you have created.
