I’m trying to get to grips with PS7’s brushes. I can make a new brush, butit doesn’t do what I’d expect in PS5. What I want is a narrow, elongated shape, for instance: Diameter 50, Roundness 10%, Hardness 90%. Now to my simple mind this brush should paint a broad stripe of colour when dragged at 90º to the long axis. But it doesn’t, it lays down a stripe that is to all intents and purposes the same as the round 27 pixel, 0% hardness brush in the standard set, i.e. just the centre of the brush is laying down colour, the pointed ends are doing nothing visible.

What am I missing? And lest anyone is wondering, no I am not trolling!

Thanks for any enlightenment.
