Scripting for brushes

What problem do you see this solving?

It takes too much time to switch hardness/flow of a brush. Especially with 1000 photos.

The Style brushes are too specific. When able to script certain brush styles it would really enhance workflow

AND be a massive health benefit for less repetitive tasks.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

today. Everyday.

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

No good one.

    Edit: I was too fast! That Shift-button is neat.
    But.. It'd still be convenient to click and brush. Rather than adjusting to 2 procent (have you ever tried to do that easily and quick? haha). But.. As I mentioned: I would help me a lot. Perhaps the bulk of the users don't use this. Thus a possibility to script it would be nice for those hardcore workflow people ;).

     

    Thank you so much for this tip Walter!

    Thank you Walter!

    yes I know those shortcuts.
    But I mostly live in the Flow-Realm of the Brush. I switch between 1/2% and 100%.
    A lot! In rare cases I use 8%, but not as much as 1 or 2.

    • Size
      • Ctrl + Opt + left-click and drag horizontally (left/right) on Mac
      • Alt + right-click and drag horizontally (left/right) on Windows
    • Hardness
      • Ctrl + Opt + left-click and then drag vertically (up/down) on Mac
      • Alt + right-click and drag vertically (up/down) on Windows

    Add SHIFT to these to adjust Opacity and Flow.

    Are you familiar with the keyboard shortcuts for adjusting brush settings? They make it really simple and fast to adjust all brush settings.
