TheOneAndOnlyChristian Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 I use tools like eraser quite often and need to vary both tool size as well as its hardness. It is quite cumbersome to move the mouse pointer every time a need to change size away from the current working area (in order to hover+scroll) over the tool size selection box. Instead, I'd highly prefer a (ideally customizable) key to be pressed, which lets me change the tool size use scroll wheel right in place. In case this feature will come, maybe the effort to add a second key to change hardness is not toooo big Best, Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Djisves Posted September 22, 2022 Solution Share Posted September 22, 2022 You can vary the size of the eraser and all tools using the "[" and "]" (square brackets) keys on your keyboard. For this and all keyboard commands, have a read here. (<-click) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 +1 ^^ You can add the Ctrl key to the square bracket keys for larger size changes (5px per combination press). Unfortunately there is no keyboard chord for Hardness.

TheOneAndOnlyChristian Posted September 26, 2022 Author Share Posted September 26, 2022 This is not very helpful, unfortunately. Given I use my mouse right-handed, I have to use the left hand for pressing whatever-keys. Pressing both Ctrl + [] is hardly possible (on a german keyboard, esp). Besides, it is not working (again, German Keyboard). Can somebody please verify, that it does/does not work with german keyboards? Maybe the feature request should then be changed to "make the keymap customizable" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rle Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 (edited) It does work with german keyboards , if you press the the right keys . "Alt Gr" + "[" or "]" or "Strg" + "Alt Gr" + "[" or "]" (for larger size changes) (on a german keyboard is Strg = Ctrl) And I strongly recommend ; Quote For this and all keyboard commands, have a read here.
