Question

Why is my brush acting up?

Everytime I try to draw something with my brush tool on Animate it would always keep drawing the line, even when I wouldn't want it to do that, whenever I draw ANYTHING the brush keeps drawing even when I want it to stop, it looks all inky and weird whenever it does this, it's incredibly annoying and I need for it to stop. Any ideas?

    Make sure you have the latest version of adobe animate also make sure your drivers are updated for the tablet that you're using to draw on.

    It may be useful if you record your screen, so that others can see the issue you're facing.

    I tried to record the problem, I thought the exact same idea that you have.

    But it would not show the issue I was having, it kept hiding it's true colors and it didn't seem like the problem was happening nor showing at all, but my brush was still acting quite strange.

    That sly little brush tool knows when the screen is being captured and decides to behave just to mess with you 😉

    Sorry, just kidding. So the issue is, as I can only imagine, you draw, you stop drawing, but the "line" keeps going beyond the point where you stopped drawing?
