Brush Tool Clear Blending Mode Spring Loading
on: March 18, 2022, 05:21:08 PM
I have a suggestion to implement on Clear Blendmode on Brush Tool

currently, you can do this with brush and eraser

I'm thinking whether the same feature could be implemented in Clear Blendmode feature.
Right now this is what happen when you try to do the same thing

and when I try to hold the Clear Blending button, it toggles the Clear Blending on and off instead

Thanks! ✨

+1 I agree, clearblending should act similar to the eraser tool

You can enable temporary "Eraser" also by long-pressing Eraser icon in the top toolbar.
Since version 3.0.9 you will be able to also set Eraser as 2/34 finger tap action.

You can also configure Finger as Eraser.

I believe having the same hold system applied for clear blending mode for brush would really beneficial since you could use the exact same brush you're using without having to change the selected brush on eraser 💖

And also I believe that it'd make the UX more consistent between eraser and "brush-equivalent of eraser" which would be a great thing ✨
May I know what you think of implementing this if I may ask?

You suggested addind "Eraser Button" in the video?
How would that work? Is it button on physical keybaord (ie. MAgic Keyboard) or virtual key on the screen?

Ah I think I understand where the confusion lies

The context of the program usage was for when you're using a keyboard with iPad. It could be anything from Magic Keyboard, or in my case, a regular Bluetooth keyboard.

what I meant above was, there's a difference in what's happening in the program when you try to hold these two buttons below



For the Eraser (Right part with E keyboard shortcut), if I try to hold the button while I make strokes with my apple pen, this happens

Meanwhile, for the Clear Blending (Left Part with ` keyboard shortcut), if I try to hold the button while I make strokes with my apple pen, this happens
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fA4dwI0TlqI

And, while the right part (Eraser) keyboard shortcut is being held, the current active tool would change into eraser and stays that way. And when the Eraser keyboard shortcut is being released, the current active tool would revert to whatever it was before the eraser was active.

Meanwhile, when the left part (Clear Blending) keyboard shortcut is being held, rather than activating the Clear Blending mode until the keyboard shortcut is released, it toggles between Normal blending and Clear blending shown below.

--

My request is for the left part of the screenshot (Clear Blending) to behave the same way eraser (right part) does. Which is :
• When the Clear Blending (left part) keyboard shortcut is being held, the brush will stay in Clear blending mode, until the keyboard is released, in which it would revert to whatever blending mode the brush was prior to this Clear blending mode.


I'm aware that the wording was rather complicated and convoluted, please feel free to ask whichever part that's not clear yet. I genuinely do not mind. Thank you so much for listening to my request 💖✨

Hey, I really love this feature!! But it only seems to work with the brush tool. Is it possible to also have clear blending activated on the lasso fill tool as well when using clear blending (temp)?
