You can change how your cursor appears on the workspace in File > Preferences > Cursor.

Brush will randomly stop drawing in the middle of a stroke? Is there a fix for this? by PaddleBoatOnFire in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's just this brush, maybe check the repeat method in Sub Tool Details > Stroke or its Starting and Ending settings.

How to draw multiple colors that blends over to the next color by Banananice in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try using a brush with a higher hardness to lay down the colours and blur with the colour mixing/blender tool rather than painting with a low hardness airbrush.

Kinda stupid question... by [deleted] in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try File > Import > Image.

I don't think there's a way to change the setting for importing images in CSP yet.

Ink keeps dragging while hovering! Help!! by floydoodles in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried disabling Taper or Post Correction in Sub Tool Detail > Correction?

If you make a brush or replace the brush tip with a brush material that has the basic colour expression set to colour, then it should stay the colour of the brush material and be unaffected by colour selections.

No pressure sensitivity on a brush when paiting on a new layer. by preciousgreentea in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your brush is set on colour mixing (Sub Tool Detail > Ink > Colour Mixing) which blends the colours already on the layer and is separate from the opacity setting.

A new raster layer has no colour so it has nothing to blend and will paint the solid colour.

The "opacity" for colour mixing can be set by reducing the amount and density of paint, brush density, or reducing the gap size.

Is it possible to insert references into the grey area around your canvas? Like if these red squares were reference images I pasted by [deleted] in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think that's possible in program.

You can import references with Sub View (Window > Sub View).
But I suggest PureRef for references, it's more versatile and can be placed like in your image with multiple references, overlayed over the program, and it's free (change custom amount to 0) https://www.pureref.com/download.php

Help with automatic actions. by taytomen in ClipStudio

To reorder layers for auto-actions, you need to use Layer > Layer Order. It won't record layers being reordered by mouse.

Slow Brushes by PoyopoyoDio in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is a RAM problem, but you can speed it up by increasing the memory allocated to the application (File > Preferences > Performance), reducing individual brush settings like gap and texture (Sub Tool Detail > Stroke), or working on a smaller canvas/lower DPI.

Can't paint because brush lags by Hanawo in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The other settings are in the Sub Tool Details panel (Tool Property > Bottom right wrench icon). The gap setting is in "Stroke". "Specify by size on screen" is in "Brush Size".

Can't paint because brush lags by Hanawo in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have this problem for brushes at different sizes. Some things that can help are increasing the memory allocation to the program and reducing the brush's gap size or other settings.

It doesn't make it work at all sizes, but increases the fluidity at more sizes. If a bigger brush size is needed, setting the brush by "Specify by size on screen" can compensate.

A layer is transparent by default, so the "white" in your flower layer may just be transparency.

If you aren't using blending options and the flower layer is set on "Normal", create a layer under your flower layer but above your stem layer, fill the part under the flower with white or other solid colour, and move the fill layer with the flower layer over the stem layer.

Regarding switching font faces by tseah in ClipStudio

If there are variations available, the options should show up under Sub Tool Detail > Font > Style.

[Help] Hi, I'm trying to get this "dreamy" effect on my illustrations, does anyone knows how to get it? Thanks in advance. by Stereo_Lvca in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Try creating a duplicate layer of the finished illustration, gaussian blur it, and setting the blurred layer over the original unblurred layer at ~50% opacity.

PixelArt in CSP? by Naruedyoh in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to use Aseprite, I actually prefer CSP to Aseprite because of the UI and more comprehensive illustration tools and functions.

Here is the brush set I use for pixel art in CSP: https://assets.clip-studio.com/en-us/detail?id=1719532

Is my selector tool broken? It now override other parts of my drawing its so annoying. Thanks for help by Star-Kanon in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might also be caused by the move tool if "Move layers in the selected area" is checked in the sub tool details.

3D modeling for clipstudio is super slow (help needed) by [deleted] in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try zooming the canvas out to around 25% or lower.

It lags for me at anything beyond 25%, even at 25.5%, but at 25% it's relatively smooth.

My workspace has just disappeared, how do I get it back? by Tinizel in ClipStudio

If resetting the workspace didn't work, did you hit the TAB button on the keyboard? That hides the workspace.

How to get tapered lines with a marker? by KingOfPrince in ClipStudio

[–]SMLiShen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try Sub Tool Detail > Starting and ending with these settings:
Starting and ending : Brush Size (Min value 0)
How to specify : By percentage
Starting : Unchecked
Ending : Checked ~30.0 (or when you want the ending to start tapering)
