Hi All,

When using my Wacom sketch pad with Photoshop I can control the sensitivity of my brush strokes, so that lighter use of the pen will result in thinner strokes and more pressure results in wider strokes. Can the same be done with opacity, so that the harder I press down the more ink is applied? Thanks in advance!

Quite a lot of variables can be accessed through the brush pallet (Window > Brushes) maybe you have accessed these already?

I’ll look in there and give that a try. Thanks!

Defintely worth having a look at

You can define your own brushes, create double brushes, choose what to pressurize or not. For example, if you click on the descriptor next to a tick box a whole range of other options may appear
