Painting and brushes
The Paintbrush Tool and
Pencil Tool on the Tools toolbar are the
basic tools for painting and drawing
freehand lines on the active layer. They
work on Background and standard layers,
but not on text layers or shape layers. The
tools work by changing pixels on the layer.
The Paintbrush Tool applies anti-aliasing to its brush strokes to ensure brush
edges appear very smooth irrespective of the brush's Hardness setting. In
contrast, the Pencil Tool (used just like the Paintbrush Tool) always creates a
hard-edged line.
The Brush Tip tab hosts a comprehensive collection of brush presets grouped
into various categories; each category can be switched to via a drop-down list
and displays a gallery. Note that each sample clearly shows the brush tip and
stroke; the number indicates the brush diameter. The brush tip determines the
thickness and many other properties of the painted line.
You can also create your own brush from within the tab.
