Question

Is there a brush option to draw in a curve, radius defined by a number entry cm or pixels perhaps ?

Hi,

CS6

Trying to paint a perfect curve of uniform or even increasing or decreasing radius is not an easy feat for a human, I am tracing curves and using shift and clicking a bit at a time but think/hope there might be a radius setting somewhere ? Perhaps also one where use of [ or ] key or arrow keys etc can alter radius as you draw.

 

Cheers

Try to stroke path (curve made with path tool) with brush.

Hi

I don't know of a way to do that in Photoshop, and maybe another volunteer will chime in.

 

You can do it in Illustrator if you have that. Here I applied a watercolor brush to a straight line path, then copied it twice and used the Width tool to add multiple widths to the line. Is this what you are looking for?
