Lower values are Accurate and will create more points while matching your pointer movement precisely. Try the default unchecked setting by drawing a shape with the shape tool, de-selecting it, then drawing over it with the Blob Brush.įidelity controls how far you need to move the pointer before Illustrator adds a new anchor point. When unchecked, a new stroke will merge with any path it encounters. Merge only with Selection specifies that new strokes merge only with selected ones. While this option is enabled, your Blob Brush brushstrokes will be grouped as you draw them. Keep Selected specifies that as you draw the last brushstroke remains selected, even if you lift your pointer and start a new one. The options here are similar to those for Calligraphy brushes. You do have control over how the Blob Brush draws: Double-click the tool to show its Tool Options dialog box. To edit Blob Brush artwork after it’s created, you will have to use other tools – there are no strokes to edit, nor any options than can be applied after creating a Blob Brush drawing. The Blob Brush (bottom) produces an unstroked, filled shape and merges overlaps as you draw. Figure 1 The regular Paintbrush (top) produces a stroke, a Rounded brush is shown here. ![]()
