Isn't that GREAT?! I love that stuff, because you can literally make usable patterns that way! It's like a pattern-designer!
...
(I meant for that to happen)
When you zoom out you see the mirror-repeating image. I figured it's really cool to keep it and always have fun with it myself, but I plan on making that an option, if I can. I certainly did not want to lose it.
If your computer's keyboard has a numpad (some laptops don't), the +/- keys double or halve the zoom. But mostly you'd use [Alt]+[Ctrl] and the mouse/pen to zoom in and out freely. I'm sure that's what you've done. Hit [Home] to reset the view to normal! If you want to save the pattern, just hit [Home] and then [numpad -] once. Then you can save the image and you can resize it in photoshop to get a nice repeating pattern. I'd imagine working at 500x500 would be ideal for that. Hit [F2] to toggle through the resolutions until you are at 500x500, the small square, and start painting away...
Pen pressure not working? key [w] should toggle pen pressure for size on and off. I should have put that up there as one of my favorite keys, because I use that very, very often.
[Space] to adjust brush size
[w] to toggle pen pressure
I often draw finer lines with [w] pen pressure on and then blend with [w] pen pressure off at the brush size that works best for the area.
Let me know, if you're still having trouble. We'll figure this out!
I'll also have a look at that part of the code today, because Ken wanted minimum size for the brush size pressure and he's perfectly right!
But, Pai, isn't it crazy how "real" this thing looks. Feels like I'm looking at some indigenous wall painting designs. Just wild.
@drpetter: I'm here for you, this whole thing is for all of you, and I'm thrilled when ever I can give advice.
...post something and tell me, if something's bugging you and I'll squirm and gringe and hope to have an answer!
But that is the beauty of a forum. Everybody learns through everybody's experiences. Especially me, of course, hehe.
