ALT-D

The draw tool is the one that most artists will be familiar with. This tool is best used with a drawing tablet, although it can be used with a mouse.

The draw tool generates either a region, or a BLine Livello Contorno with pressure output from the tablet mapped to the line's width.

Options

Pressure Width

Whether or not to scale the width based on the pressure input. If this is unchecked, the layer will be drawn at the width indicated in the New Layer Defaults section of the Toolbox

Auto Loop

When the stroke of the draw tool ends near the beginning of the stroke, automatically connect the last duck to the first.

Auto Connect (not in svn)

When the stroke begins and/or ends at or near an endpoint duck of another outline, the resulting outline is simply appended to the existing Livello Contorno

When the stroke begins and/or ends at or near a vertex duck in the middle of another outline, the first and/or last vertex of the resulting outline is linked to the duck on the existing Livello Contorno.

Auto Extend (only in svn)

When the stroke begins and/or end at or near an endpoint duck of another outline, the resulting outline is simply appended to the existing Livello Contorno

Auto Link (only svn)

When the stroke begins and/or ends at or near a vertex duck in another outline, and the outline isn't being extended by the Auto Extend option above, the first and/or last vertex of the resulting outline is linked to the duck on the existing Livello Contorno.

Create Region Only

Rather than creating an Livello Contorno, the tool discards pressure information, and creates a Livello Regione instead.

Min Pressure

The value of this option clamps the lower end of the Pressure sensitivity to a specific value, essentially determining how thin the thinnest possible segment is relative to the Brush Size parameter in the Toolbox.

Feather

(revise me) Seems to have something to do with setting the Feather Parameter on the layer, but there doesn't seem to be a clear translation between the setting of this control, and the resulting parameters.

LocalError

This affects whether the Smooth option is in world coordinates or not. But I'm not sure what it measures when this is turned on.

Smooth

Determines how much tablet jitter is removed, and as a result, how many vertices the resulting splines are composed of.

Buttons

Fill Last Stroke

Currently creates a Livello Regione, causes some errors, and then deletes the region layer again.
