Timing settings for straight line….?

Can I adjust the timing for straight line "kick in"?

 

I basically don't want the straight line feature to kick in when I hold my pencil to the screen, just don't use it that way. Like natural drawing, I sketch a line and pause with my pencil to the surface - but I'm just pausing, not waiting for the straight-line to take over.

 

I can't find anything in settings to control that.

The only setting that you can control regarding the straight line/snap to shape is shown in the app settings (cog wheel, top right of the window)

 

where you can enable or disable it.

If you've downloaded the last version, you'll find the new snap to shape in addition to the straight line gesture..

 

If you'd like this feature added, you can request it in Fresco user voice here:

there is also an in-app feature request in the app settings.

Ok thanks. Not sure why you phrased it as "the only setting that you can control...", as if it were a work-around solution. Turning it off is precisely what I wanted to do - pretty sure I said that. 

Any rate, all good now.

I understood badly, I tought you still wanted the straight line, but with just the slight pause, not the full hold.

No that's not possible. To use digital drawing you'll have to adjust the way you draw. If you don't want the line to straighten lift the pen slightly before continuing with your next stroke.
