After selecting color, applying to correct shade selected requires several strokes of brush rather than applying the shade of color selected. Making work much like using an actual tool rather than digital.
Hi Starwarfan, What you are describing is only one of the many ways a brush preset can function. Each brush preset has a different look and feel to them, and the artists that use Krita use different brushes for different effects, regardless of how real world tools work. You can customize how brushes work by using the brush settings: https://docs.krita.org/en/user_manual/loading_saving_brushes.html This is not a crash or any other kind of bug. It therefore does not belong on the bug tracker. For this reason I am going to close it as invalid. If you have questions on how to use brushes, I would recommend using the forum as there different people can give opinions on how they use their brushes.
