Description Jo 2017-01-04 15:25:49 UTC

Brush presents with size dynamics are displayed with its outline on-canvas at "maximum pressure size".
When I paint, the brush outline gets smaller. Isn't possible to display the brush outline on-canvas in a medium size - between "minimum pressure" and "maximum pressure"?
it would be easier for me, to point with my brush in the right spot to paint, with a smaller brush outline.

I believe this is a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374551, no sure though.

no, it isnt. Its how dynamics are displayed by default, when i use a big brush.
When i use pressure dynamics, the brush should get bigger or smaller, not when i do nothing and hover only over the canvas. In that case the brush should be a smaller brush size, not the current scale ratio.

Or, alternatively, showing two outlines: smaller one (minimum or average/median outline; minimum will work great for brushes with always >0 Size) and the bigger one (biggest Size).

It would have to be in settings and probably off by default.
