This option controls the radius of the brush, measured in pixels. F allows you to change the brush size interactively by dragging the mouse and then LMB. Typing a number then enter while using F allows you to enter the size numerically.

• Size Pressure

  Brush size can be affected by enabling the pressure sensitivity icon, if you are using a Graphics Tablet.

  Use Unified Radius

  Use the same brush Radius across all brushes.

Strength

• Use Unified Strength

  Use the same brush Strength across all brushes.

Note

All brushes use the Airbrush Stroke Method; they continue to act as long as you keep LMB pressed.
