Resize a brush

Is the brush or eraser the wrong size, making it difficult to get into an area, or too small, taking you too long to do what you need to do? If so, change it by either using the resize tool or a handy hotkey. If you are using the stylus eraser, try changing its size.

Resizing a brush

1. Click the current brush icon.

   The brush palette appears.

2. Select this icon in the brush palette:

   The Resize Brush pad appears, and stays up even if you close the Brush palette.

   NoteYou can move the Resize Brush pad by click-dragging the outer edge.
3. Drag the stylus over this pad to change the brush size.

   As the brush becomes bigger or smaller, the brush outline and a numerical value update.

Resizing your brush with a hotkey

1. Hold down the B key.
2. Drag the stylus to resize.

   An outline of the brush appears.

   If the brush becomes bigger or smaller, the brush outline and a numerical value tell you.

Resizing the eraser end of the stylus

The eraser on the end of your stylus is linked to the hard eraser brush.

Either:

- Change the properties of the hard eraser brush.
- Drag the eraser end of the stylus over the Resize Brush tool.
