Starting and ending
Allows you to configure starting and ending effect when using a drawing-type tool. Starting and ending is an effect that gradually changes the strength of the stroke at the start and end of a line.

Some settings may not display depending on the selected tool or sub tool. |
(1) Starting and ending
When clicked, the [Starting and ending effect dynamics] pop-up dialog box displays.
Configure the starting and ending settings by selecting the check box of each relevant item. You can also configure the ratio of the minimum strength value to start and/or end a line using the slider next to each item.

|
·You can configure multiple starting and ending items. ·Displayed starting and ending items vary depending on the selected tool or sub tool. |
(2) How to specify
Select the method for specifying the starting and ending length.
|
Specify length |
Specifies the starting and ending length numerically. Drawing starts at the ratio configured in [Minimum value] for [Starting and ending]. The strength of the stroke increases gradually along the length specified in [Starting] until it reaches the maximum value (100%). Drawing ends by gradually decreasing the strength of the stroke along the length specified in [Ending] until it reaches the minimum value at the end. |
|
By percentage |
Specifies the starting and ending length as a percentage of the length of the line to draw. Drawing starts at the [Minimum value] for [Starting and ending]. The strength of the stroke increases gradually along the length specified in [Starting] until it reaches the maximum value (100%). Drawing ends by gradually decreasing the strength of the stroke along the length specified in [Ending] until it reaches the minimum value at the end. |
|
Fade |
Applies only the ending effect to a line. Ending starts at the maximum value (100%). The strength of the stroke gradually decreases along the length specified in [Ending] until it reaches the minimum value configured in [Starting and ending]. Once the minimum value is reached, the value is maintained until the end. |
(3) Starting
When turned on, applies the starting effect to a line. A slider allows you to configure the starting length.
(4) Ending
When turned on, applies the ending effect to a line. A slider allows you to configure the ending length.
(5) Starting and ending by speed
Adjusts the strength of [Starting and ending] by the speed of the stroke.
