Paint brush on top or under

[Songe22554730uxqp]

When using the painbtbrush tool, sometimes new lined draw above previous paintbrush lines and sometimes they draw below previous lines.

So like I do some sketching in one color, and then I go to do some cleanup afterwards in another color, and the new lines appear beneath the sketch lines and other times they appear above them, and I cannot for the life of me figure out what parameters decide this.  All of this is taking place on the same layer.  

I am not interested in doing the work on different layers, because onion skinning and all that becomes complicated and annoying.

Thanks for any help, in advance!

check your brush mode:

This is a problem with the Paintbrush tool, so it doesn't have that option.

yes, it does.

In case what I asked wasn't totally clear, it seems to randomly switch between drawing under the last marks and drawing above them.  I can't think of anything that I have changed in between.  It doesn't happen in the same frame.  Or even in the next one.  But like every 5th frame it decides to draw under for some reason

check your custom keyboard shortcuts.  you're doing something to select one of the modes (other than paint normal).

I think I figured it out.  I does it based on the value of the color.  So, as an example, black goes under and white goes over.

doubtful.

Where then is the option to change paint behind/on top?

my error.

the info i supplied was for the classic brush tool.  you're using a drawing tablet (i assume) and having trouble with the tilt/pressure/object drawing or some other setting or possible your tablet or possibly your tablet's drivers.
