Adjusting sensitivity with velocity calibration

“

- Like pressure, velocity is an important part of expressivity. Each of us have a combination of hand, wrist, and arm motions that translates into our unique, evocative style. And like pressure, expressivity can be enhanced with velocity calibration. Let's check it out. So, I'm going to be using the flat color brush here. And, by default, it's using pressure as a means of expressing yourself with this brush. What I want to do is go up to the property bar and click on the size icon here and this is where I can go in and I can change the expression from pressure to velocity. Now, when I draw with it, see what's happening? As I draw slow, it's drawing that small brush, but as soon as I speed up, it knows to get smaller. So, it's using this large to small factor as a way to control this with the velocity of your hand. Let's go ahead and enable brush calibration and when I start to adjust the brush, I first put velocity power all the way up and velocity scale all the way down. And then…
