brush size

At this moment it's possible to use the right-click button of the wacompen to erase with the selected tool, which is a marvelous feature.
It should be great if the double-clickbutton could be used to enlarge or minimize the brush by sliding, the way the alt-right-click zooming function works (which is another marvelous timesaver).

In the wacom panel, you can set the double-clic buton to act like a key.
Set it to "%".
in TVPaint perfs/configure keyboard shortcuts assign :
% - Tools Brush: Change size

(I tryed the same with MMB assigned to dcbutton, does not work.)

Thanks, but it doesn't work over here. I get a straight line tool, and besides that, I'm not able anymore to use the specific button on my wacompen to doubleclick.
What I mean is that it would be nice if it's possible to use the pen to 'slide' between sizes, if you know what I mean. Just like the zoom in/zoom out possibility with the right-click button.

Thanks for your help.
But it's really a feature request. To standardize that option without having to change the wacom settings everytime.

Remember that you can set the "Tools Brush : change size" function to any key.
Hit the key and slide the stylus, the pen size will change.

Yes, it works with all brushes, except the custombrushes, which are the only ones I use. So maybe I''m doing something wrong, but it doesn't seem to work.

In this case, use Brush:resize fuction.
By default it is assigned to Z key.
