Resizing brushes in Sketchbook for mobile devices
How to resize a brush is slightly different depending on the version you're using and the platform you're on. The fastest way is to use the sliders or Brush Puck.
Resizing a brush using sliders
- In the Brush Palette, tap any brush to select it. Sliders appear beside the palette for changing size or hardness/size and opacity or opacity/flow.
- Tap-drag them up or down. An on-screen display appears, indicating the new numeric values for the changed brush property.
Resizing a brush using Brush Settings
- Open Brush Properties
- On the Basic tab drag the Sizeslider, or tap the number above the slider to numerically input the size you want the brush to be and then tap "Done". If you numerically enter a number that is not supported by the brush, it will default to the nearest supported value.
- If you have a pressure-sensitive stylus: the size shown on the Basic tab is the heavy pressure setting. When you adjust it on the Basic tab, the light pressure setting will adjust as well based on the current relationship between the two values. If you want to adjust heavy and light pressure settings independently, tap over to the Advanced tab.
