Re: AW: Different behavior of brush on Win / Mac
Tiemo, I going through the same problem with the brush tool in Rev 3.0.0-gm. 3 and MAC 10.5.5 When I use the brush tool in an Image area, it does not work properly and it is not accurate at all. It was working much better in the previous versions of Revolution (2.6). Particularly with images with a transparent background. I wonder if you found a solution to this problem.

Hi Jacqueline, yes that's what I tested with the same result. Even when drawing strict vertical and horizontal lines I get some ghost pixels, e.g. when changing the direction. For example, when I am drawing this line from top to bottom-left: * * * * ** I get these additional pixels, when changing the drawing direction from the vertical part to the horizontal part of the line: * * *** *** *** When drawing circles the additional pixels come completely irregular with a very ugly result of the line :( Tiemo Why are your brush images larger than their contents? Can you make your custom images the same size as the brush it contains? For example, an 8x8 brush should be in an 8x8 image. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | [EMAIL PROTECTED] HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

AW: Different behavior of brush on Win / Mac
I tried it with an extra image layer on top, without success. The annoying water-color effect, seems to come from a wrong interpretation of the brush shape The brush image actually is 32x32 pixel and the opaque brush within is (I think) 8x8 pixel. It seems that sometimes some more pixel as the inner 8x8 of this 32x32 image begin to draw in some situations. Now I tried to build different images 8x8, 16x16, 32x32 with different shapes and I tried to use set the brush to and also set the brushpattern to, all with the same annoying result. Pretty confused Tiemo Perhaps my approach is wrong. I have an image (foto), where the user can paint on. Perhaps the pixels of the existing image influence the pixels of the brush? Perhaps I should try to create an empty image above the other to paint with the brush or something like that.

AW: Different behavior of brush on Win / Mac
Hello Jacqueline, thanks for replying. I now tried three different things, working with Rev 3.0: - selected brushes in the standalone settings and used the smallest round brush: 8 - imported a self made image 32x32 pixels and an opaque area of about 8x8 pixels (similar to the standard brush 8) - imported a self made image 8x8 pixels with an opaque area of about 4x4 pixels. All three approaches get a similar ugly result. The only difference is the 4x4 brush, where the line is just slimmer, but same ugly. I am developing on Win and build the Mac standalone on Win. Could it be the standalone engine on Mac? Perhaps my approach is wrong. I have an image (foto), where the user can paint on. Perhaps the pixels of the existing image influence the pixels of the brush? Perhaps I should try to create an empty image above the other to paint with the brush or something like that. Tiemo I've never seen this happen, but it might be because the brush images change IDs when you copy the brushes into the mainstack. Instead of doing that, remove the brushes substack and try selecting brushes in the standalone builder. That will make sure the IDs are correct. If you are using an older version of Revolution, brushes were not included in the SB. I think they were added in 2.9. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | [EMAIL PROTECTED] HyperActive Software | http://www.hyperactivesw.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
