Mask, Fill, and Edge controls for the Scribble effect


    Adjust the following controls for the Scribble effect:

    Scribble

    Specifies the mask you want to use for the Scribble effect. Single Mask scribbles a specified mask on the layer; All Masks scribbles all masks on the layer; All Masks Using Modes combines the masks using their modes and then scribbles the resulting shape.

    Mask

    Specifies the mask to use for the effect. It is enabled if Scribble is set to Single Mask.

    Fill Type

    Controls whether the fill is drawn inside the path or creates a scribble along the path. Inside draws the fill inside the path. Centered Edge draws the fill along the edge from the center out. Inside Edge draws the fill along the path from the inside. Outside Edge draws the fill along the path from the outside. Inside Edge and Outside Edge have no effect if used with an open path.

    Edge Options

    Specify the options for the edge of the scribble. It is enabled if Fill Type is set to an edge.

    • Edge Width controls the width of the edge.
    • End Cap controls the ends of scribble lines. Use Round for stroked lines with semicircular ends; use Butt for stroked lines with squared ends; and use Projecting for stroked lines with squared ends that extend half the line width beyond the end of the line, making the weight of the line extend equally in all directions around the line. This option is enabled only if Fill Type is set to Centered Edge.
    • Join specifies how the corners of a scribble line appear. Use Round for stroked lines with rounded corners; use Bevel for stroked lines with squared corners; and use Miter for stroked lines with pointed corners.
    • Miter Limit controls when the effect switches from a miter (pointed) join to a bevel (squared-off) join. Specify a value between 1 and 500. For example, if the value is set to the default value of 4, the effect switches from a miter to a bevel join when the length of the point reaches four times the stroke weight. A miter value of 1 results in a bevel join. It is enabled if Join is set to the Miter option.

    Color

    Specifies Scribble color.

    Opacity

    Specifies the opacity of the lines in the scribble.
