How to achieve less smoothing with brush strokes and wacom?

Is there a smoothing setting for brushes? When I draw certain shapes with sharper corners (like squares) illustrator rounds them out very excessively. I know there has to be a certain amount of smoothing to convert a stroke made by the user into a vector, but is there a way to reduce the amount. Interestingly, if I draw the shape really fast, I get the desired result, however if I draw slowly, it rounds it tremendously. I would think it would be the other way around because with a slower stroke you are giving more input points and therefore more precision but this is obviously not the case. Basically, I want to achieve brush strokes that more accurately represent my input. Thanks in advance for the help.

thanks so much for the quick reply! It couldn't be any easier. I just lowered the fidelity setting to the minimum and it is behaving perfectly.

  • How do i add filter to just brush strokes and paint fill not pencil.

    Sorry it is kind of hard to explain in the description.
    What i want to know is if i can pretty much just select the brush strokes and paint fill on a layer and have the pencil lines left alone.
    I want to filter, then blur the brush strokes and paint fill on the layer but keep the pencil lines sharp, i have been doing paint fill and brush stroked on a different layer than the pencil lines but this takes ages because i have to draw the picture out twice everytime using the brush strokes to go along the pencil lines so i can fill them in with color, if i could blur them on same layer without effecting pencil lines then i could just fill the pencil lines with paint bucket instead of redarwing the lines with brush tool if this makes sence.
    Here is a picture to show what im trying to achieve
    The pencil lines are on a different layer to brush strokes

    if you convert to a movieclip (right click>convert to symbol>movieclip) whatever you want to filter, you can filter it independent of other objects.

  • How can I use LCCS with ActionScript 3 and Flash CS4?

    Hi,
    Using Stratus I was able to create an an application using Action Script 3 and Flash CS4.  The sample code on the Adobe site was quite straight forward and easy to understand.  I now want to switch over to  LCCS but can't find anything any where on how to use Action Script 3 and Flash CS4 with LCCS.  Do I need to know Flex to be able to use LCCS?  Everything was quite simple and easy to understand with Stratus and makes complete sense.  But LCCS is really confusing.  Is there any sample code on how to establish a connection in Action Script 3 and then stream from a webcam to a client.  There is nothing in the  LCCS SDK that covers Flash and Action Script 3.  Please help!  I found the link below on some forum but it takes me nowhere.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the LCCS world.
    Please refer to the SDK's sampleApps folder. There would be an app called FlashUserList. The app demonstrates how LCCS can be used with Flash CS4. Its a  pretty basic app, but should help you moving.
    We are trying to improve our efforts to help developers in understanding our samples. Please do let us know if we can add something that would help others.
    Thanks

  • How to display polygons both with line contour and filled interior?

    How to display polygons both with line contour and filled interior?
    Java3D 1.3, Java 1.4.1-rc

    Hi,
    I just started with Java3D last week.
    I assume you mean drawing polygons with outlines (wireframe) in one color and polygon face filling with another color. If so, I've got the same question! (I usually think of "contour" to refers to plotting surface intensity of independent data like temperature or elevation, but I don't think you mean this.)
    The only solution I've found so far is to make two shapes with the same geometry.
    Here's an example - an outlined and filled cube. I made it using a generalize class DualShape which is two shapes with the same geometry, but one filled and one as a line.
    It works, although I can't say I understand the setPolygonOffset(), knowing what value to set. Without the command, the depthbuffer can't consistently decide which should be in front between the fills and lines so it looks bad.
    I certainly think it would be nicer to do both internally, like:
    pa.setPolygonMode(pa.POLYGON_LINE || pa.POLYGON_FILL);
    And then have setFillColor and setLineColor for each.
    I don't know why they don't allow this - maybe OpenGL can't do it like this so Java3D follows.
    If anyone has any better ideas I'd like to hear about it.

    I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that.
    Version 10.0.2 is the newest version and the successor to GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.5).
    The '11 is referring to the iLife '11 suit of multimedia application - the older GarageBand was a part of this bundle.
    Have a look at Edgar's graphical enhanced manuals, the explain very detailed how things work and why. You can buy them as iBooks from the iBook store or directly from the page:

  • How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio from garageband be the sound when recording and not just your normal voice but garage band effects for youtube?

    How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio form garageband be apart of the video when recording, meaning the audio from garageband and echo  and not just your normal voice for youtube post?its not add the garageband audio its just normal voice from mic no  effects is going thru?

    Hi Life93,
    What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)

    Hi,
    There is no way to delete those records selectively from front end.
    The best possible way is to delete the records from MRP_FORECAST_DATES tables from backend.
    Hope that helps!!

  • How does one make very large brush strokes of several inches wide. I could do this in the previous version of Apurture.

    I just upgraded my Aperture app but now it will not allow me to make inches wide brush strokes when I need to lighten, darken or other adjustments. In the previous version I could make inches wide adjustments. I really need to do this again. How can I do this?

    The brush size is measured in pixels.  The maximum is 1,000 px.  If you have any pixel-filtering turned on, the maximum size drops to 200 px.  In the Brush HUD, make sure "Detect Edges" is un-checked, and that "Brush Range" is "All".

  • How do I simply fade a brush stroke in CS6?

    All I want to do it make a brush stroke fade off at different fade lengths. I've been looking online and it seems it's done in "Other Dynamics" in the Brushes menu, however there is not "Other Dynamics" in my Brushes menu! Aaarghh! Of all the years using Photoshop, this was never an issue. I'm not sure why Adobe made it sooo complicated.

    To get the opacity of the brush to fade in and out within a single stroke you need a tablet with pressure sensitivity. 
    What about brush flow, it gets more opacity as you swing it?

  • How can we improve the Roto Brush tool and Refine Matte effect?

    If you use the Roto Brush tool and/or Refine Matte effect, let us know how you're using it and what you'd like to see improved.
    (We'd especially appreciate it if you gave feedback after you've had a chance to learn how to use the features and try them out on some real work.)
    Normally, we like to encourage feedback through the feature-request form, but in this case we'd like to get a more public conversation going.

    Hello,
    I've been using the Roto Brush and so far I am very impressed.  It is much more stable than I anticipated and gets me pretty far with much less work.  I'd say I can get my shots 85-90% of the way done with the Roto Brush tools, in a fraction of the time.  Bravo to Adobe for such a great tool.  I have however, hit one major snag.  I am part of a pipeline and I need to render out my mattes and pass them up the chain.  When I look at my Roto Brush precomp it is beautiful, the motion blur is perfect and the alpha looks identical when I check that out.  However when I render out my tiff sequence and pull it back in to check it, there is bleed in the motion blur.  I'm not sure this is a roto brush problem because when I look at the alpha of the roto brush layer and the rendered matte they appear identical.  Any suggestions on how to get the bleed out of the blur?
    Thanks,
    Danielle
