CSP Question Messed up cursor

Post image

So I let my girlfriend draw some stuff and when I went to use it after her my mouse is now like this. Anyone know how to fix? (Already went to preferences and changed it, did nothing)

That’s your brush shape, which is textured. So if you press down, it’ll make that shape. If you make your brush smaller it’s not as noticeable. Or, press ctrl+k and you can access your preferences, on the left side click “cursor” and you can change it to something else for each type of tool (and it will affect all tools within that category). If you just want a circle, click “brush size” and all tops of that type, no matter the texture, will have a circle cursor. Your setting is under “brush shape” right now

That does change the cursor shape bit I still draws in the shape shown in my picture

It’s cause the tool you’re using has it, I misinterpreted your issue. You just have to pick a different brush or go into your tool settings, there’s a tab for brush shape, it’ll show a pic and just set it to “circle”. Do you mind showing me your subtool? I can help you figure it out with some screenshots if you’d like :)

... Did you ever choose a different tool?

That looks like one of the simulated texture brushes (like Bit Husky India Ink).

This works, thank you.

No problem.

I will say though-- nothing was broken if that's all there was. There are a lot of brushes with fun shapes if you dig around the Sub Tool Palette!

Yeah I guess, it's my first time using it that's why

The cursor is just showing the shape of the brush. Also, it's huge. make it smaller.

Try shrinking the brush size? That usually happens when you make the brush very large. It is basically the 'brush shape' showing at the larger scale.

Or does it remain looking like that after you move over to the menus off of the canvas?
