I'm trying to use the dynamic "speed" in some brushes but it doesn't seem to be doing anything, the curve doesn't seem to be affecting it speed is mainly used for pen-like brushes,I think quick stroke ->thinner line (size) slow stroke ->thicker line (size) but it doesn't work.
Yes, this definitely seems to be broken.
Right, for 2.8 we'll have to disable it.
This bug is even worse now that the add-up of sensors actually works! Any brush that has speed ticked, now will barely input anything for that sensor. I expect a lot of brushes to be broken with 2.9.
Oh, forgot to add, but this should be useful to know. The speed sensor does work on the calligraphy tool(accessed with the 'thinning' parameter), and the hairy-brush engine(where it's used in 'mouse-pressure'). So there's bits of Krita where the speed-sensor code does work, it just doesn't work in the most important part.
Git commit f3d76c6c37eb3be3a618eaf890a75586b4f2b9b4 by Dmitry Kazakov. Committed on 22/06/2015 at 13:26. Pushed by dkazakov into branch 'calligra/2.9'. [FEATURE] Make brush 'speed' sensor work Implemented a complex smoothing algorithm for speed sensor, which makes Speed work almost perfectly. The smoothing is two-stage: 1) Calculate the distance of the path connecting last 10 points (but not longer than 300px). 2) Divide the distance by time value and smooth the result further with 10 previous values Fixes:T426 CC:kimageshop@kde.org M +90 -37 krita/image/brushengine/kis_paint_information.cc M +19 -9 krita/image/brushengine/kis_paint_information.h M +1 -1 krita/image/tests/kis_paint_information_test.cpp M +1 -1 krita/libbrush/kis_auto_brush.cpp M +1 -1 krita/libbrush/tests/kis_auto_brush_test.cpp M +8 -8 krita/libbrush/tests/kis_brush_test.cpp M +3 -3 krita/libbrush/tests/kis_imagepipe_brush_test.cpp M +8 -8 krita/plugins/paintops/libpaintop/tests/kis_sensors_test.cpp M +1 -0 krita/ui/CMakeLists.txt M +28 -2 krita/ui/tool/kis_painting_information_builder.cpp M +6 -1 krita/ui/tool/kis_painting_information_builder.h A +120 -0 krita/ui/tool/kis_speed_smoother.cpp [License: GPL (v2+)] A +40 -0 krita/ui/tool/kis_speed_smoother.h [License: GPL (v2+)] M +1 -1 krita/ui/tool/kis_tool_freehand.cc http://commits.kde.org/calligra/f3d76c6c37eb3be3a618eaf890a75586b4f2b9b4
