my trouble with the pentool

2 subjects here :
1 ) a way to blur slightly the edges of a FreeHandLine / Solved with tricks
2 ) 'sputtery' lines : probably a bug

Yes, it's two subjects. But I didn't want to make a stink about something that might have been my fault

just tried to sneak it in on the side.

And as a correction, I want to state that it does indeed occur on my TabletPC as well. Definitely sputtery, nice word choice, Manuel.

I have kind of ,with help here and there, sorted out a solution for myself. First I now work at double sized projects, which allows far more precision in drawing and secondly I use the "point"cursor instead of the "cross", I changed it and suddenly noticed how I could draw far more freely. Cant believe I didn't try that before.

Its those little settings that made it far say, less frustrating for me. :p Ofcourse its all a matter of personal preference in settings.

I agree about the point cursor -- it's all I've used for over a year.
But double size projects can really bring down the responsiveness if you've got lots of animated layers.
Anyhow, it's not a big concern.

About the pointcursor, the only disadvantage is that sometimes it's hard to spot where on the screen you are exactly
