JoeSmith543 Posted November 15 Posted November 15 Hi, I find I often need to change the size of the brush, but I find that two step action of clicking on a drop down menu, and then scroll then clicking a relative numerical value (which I don't know intuitively how big a 75 is) I find that a bit annoying, a bit of a speed bump, friction if you will Here is what part of the program I am talking about And I am curious if there is an option, or a plugin, that will make these appear as, circles of the actual size of the brush And maybe put my favorite sizes on the toolbar directly, instead of in a drop down menu, so that I could one-click them ? Also, perhaps there is some keyboard-scroll function that would let me adjust the brush size on the fly ? Like I don't know CTRL+SHIFT+horizontal mouse scroll wheel? Also, are there shapes other than circles ? Thanks ! 1 Quote

Move the mouse pointer over the Brush size control and rotate the mouse wheel. 2. Use the shortcut keys [ and ] / Ctrl+[ and Ctrl+] See the Documentation at https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/Paintbrush.html#4 Quote
Ego Eram Reputo Posted November 16 Posted November 16 Click in the Brush Size number box and type a new value. You don't have to commit or enter the value, it will be used immediately. If you have the current value highlighted (blue background), you can move the pointer over the canvas and watch the size change as you type. So long as you don't click on anything, the Backspace key erases the value, so you can type another. And another...
