Is anyone else having problems with the curve tool? I can never get it to stroke on a curve (SHIFT +C) 100% of the time. It’ll process, but I won’t get anything at times.. if I’m lucky I’ll get it maybe 10% of the time. I realise that I need to keep the entire line insidethe geometry, but even still that doesn’t help all the time.

For example I want to use the stroke on a curve to make the lines on a bandaged arm.

And even curve itself is broken for me. When I try to manually brush with a soft brush or any brush on a curve, i’ll never get a smooth stroke. It stops abruptly even though I’m still holding down left mouse and won’t make any more brush strokes. I end up having to release and continue brush again, but it produces an uneven stroke, I usually ahve to do this 5-6 times on the same curve so u can see how broken the line is at the end.

ANyone have any solutions? cuz this is such a powerful tool with lots of potential but it’s currently driving me bonker X____x

thnx!

EDIT nevermind I got it to work.. sorta.. I’ll keep my question here just in case other ppl are lost with this tool. USE the scratch brush it works best. It may not complete the entire line, but at least u won’t get as many broken lines! hope this helps..
