Selecting strokes (PB only)To edit a specific paint stroke, first select it. Use the selection tool ( Important: To use either method of opening the menu, Vector Paint must be selected (highlighted) in the Effect Controls window. The following commands are in the contextual menu, under Select. Use these commands for selecting and editing strokes in a painting layer. Some of these are tied to the current position of the Time Marker in the Timeline window. All Selects all strokes on a layer. None Deselects all strokes on a layer. (Available only if some strokes are selected.) Visible Selects all strokes visible at the current frame. Current Time Selects all strokes that were drawn at the current time position. (Playback Speed does not affect the original start time of strokes.) Last Painted Selects the last-painted brush stroke (or erase stroke). If you painted several strokes with the Shift key held down, this command selects that group of strokes. Similar With one or more strokes selected, this selects additional strokes with similar Brush Settings properties. If strokes with dissimilar properties are initially selected, this command selects a broader range of strokes. Inverse Toggles to a selection of all unselected strokes, leaving the previously selected strokes unselected. After you select one or more strokes, you can use keyboard shortcuts to transform them, such as by rotating, scaling (vertically, horizontally, or both), or nudging (repositioning one pixel at a time). For a list of these shortcuts, see Vector Paint keyboard shortcuts (PB only). |
