A lazy mouse feature in PS would be great. (like the one in Zbrush)

There is an external program called Lazy Nezumi, but this only 'works' on PC, & not on Mac (sadface)

thanks for this thread, at least now I know about the stabilizer tool in SAI

(btw, there is this 'smoothing' option in the brush settings(in photoshop), but it does not seem to do anything)

Yeah Lazynezumi is not reliable enough - this really should've been added to PS years ago! Just google "inking in photoshop" or "smooth lines in photoshop" etc - people have been wanting this for years!

I do all of my linework in SAI because of the stabilizer. It's basically impossible to create clean lines like that in PS on a tablet. Really would help my workflow to have it integrated.

YES, adobe, just copy the stabilizer from SAI paint tool and you are all good ! enough with leeching basic features for your next so called upgrades

A great think I would love to see in CS6 would be a steady mouse feature... similar to the Lazy Mouse in ZBrush. That would be so handy (get it, handy? :P)

this is a great idea!

Helps create better curves while painting! Much needed for Photoshop. The program Lazy Nezumi is good, but gets in the way of workflow. I'm surprised PS doesn't have this feature...

its a tool in zbrush that allows you to draw smooth strokes by hand. It uses some sort of calculation to average out the stroke your mouse travels.

heres a link to the lazy nezumi program (win only) http://people.happycoders.org/kamih/w...

there are some zbrush tutorial videos online where they use lazy mosue.

What exact is "Lazy Mouse"? (other than a cat-snack)
