Sketching limitations
 
 
 

Limitations related to brushes, shapes, masks, image planes, and canvas layers.

General

It is not possible to change the mode of any paint layer (for example to Multiply, Lighten, Darken, etc) when using of a Hide or Show brush. Only the Normal mode appears in the pull down menu. Changing the active brush to a different mode, or selecting a different tool will correct the problem.

Paint

Paint updates slowly on a layer with an associated shape warp layer.

Turning off the visibility of the associated shape warp layer will resolve this issue.

Painting on a newly created layer, which sits on top of another layer uses multiply blending mode, is sometimes slow.

Switch to another layer below the newly created layer, then switch back to the newly created layer.

Transformations on a text layer cannot be undone.

Marker Broad brush in the Paint palette sometimes shows a pixel edging artifact: a one pixel thin line running next to the brush stroke.

This issue can be resolved by recreating default preferences.

The text tool (Paint > Text Image) does not support multi-byte languages such as Japanese, Korean, or Chinese.

Shapes

Shapes may not work on symmetry geometry.
