Freehand lines begin straight? - JDRegius - 05-23-2020
Hi, Firstly im sure this will be a simple setting I'm missing but hopefully you can help.
Basic info Using 2.10.18 on windows 10, with a wacom intuos tablet.
Whenever I try to draw a small curved line with a brush tool the first centimetre is always straight, It look like it registers a 'start point' then no matter what route I take it draws a straight line to an arbitrary point a short distance from the start. So instead of a smooth curve i get a straight line leading into the curve.
Any ideas what i have missed or need to change settings wise to reduce or eliminate this?
I have not used any hardware or software like this before so forgive me if it's something basic I have missed.
Cheers
JD

Are you using any "Smooth Stroke" settings? Any brush dynamics? Does the same thing happen with a mouse?

Smooth Stroke is unchecked, Brush dynamics are off. Didn't appear to happen with a mouse.
I have just tried again and it seems to have fixed it's self (i had already restarted a few times.)
Well hopefully it doesn't come back but ill check the brush dynamic smooth stroke are off if it comes back.
