This parameter determines how far your drawing strokes trail behind your mouse cursor or tablet pen as you draw. For the purpose of demonstration, these images were done using the largest supported distance. NOTE The distance between your mouse cursor or tablet pen and the stroke can be adjusted. Once that length is reached, the string pulls the drawing tool in the direction of your mouse cursor or tablet pen. This string has a certain maximum length. As you move the mouse or tablet pen, the drawing tool remains in that position, but a 'string' appears, linking your drawing tool to your mouse cursor or pen tip. Pulled String: When you start drawing a stroke, Harmony positions the drawing tool where your stroke starts. When you draw a stroke, artwork for it is generated immediately.Īverage: Harmony calculates the average direction of all of your mouse or pen gestures between the end of the actual drawing stroke and the current position of your mouse cursor or pen tip, and extends the stroke in this average direction, effectively evening out jitter and rounding sharp turns. Stabilizer Off: No stabilization is performed.The way Harmony does this depends on the stabilization method you choose: Harmony uses the buffer between your mouse cursor or pen tablet and the actual drawing stroke to generate smooth curves and ignore jittering and small mistakes. After your stroke has reached that length, Harmony starts generating an drawing stroke that keeps trailing behind your mouse cursor or tablet pen as you draw. Harmony accomplishes this by his by letting you draw a stroke of a certain length without generating artwork right away. Stabilization is a process by which Harmony uses the general direction of your drawing strokes to create smooth, stable curves and avoid jittering and sharp corners. IconĪllows you to select a method for Harmony to stabilize your drawing strokes. NOTE For information on how to use the Pen Settings toolbar, see About Pen Stabilization.
