Brush to Eyedropper
on: February 10, 2018, 10:36:19 AM
When using the brush, sometimes it just switches over to eyedropper while painting. This really becomes a major problem when drawing in the LINE mode. I have to go to the mouse and not use my Watcom Pen. This happens with Watcom regular and art pens. I am using Watcom Intuos 5 tablet and running Mac OS High Sierra. All of my drivers and software are updated,

In top menu - go to Artstudio Pro>Preferences, and increase Eyedropper Delay to bigger value. Or set it to zero to disable "long press to start Eyedropper".

Speaking of eyedropper: when you are using the eraser tool ,and pick a color from the canvas , do you think you can implement a way to let the app switch automatically to the brush tool after picking the color? it's not necessary but would be nice:)
afterall, picking a color is mainly only related to the brush tool.  :)

If layer has ‘Lock Transparency’ enabled, eraser uses its color to “paint”.
