I am so so happy pressure sensitivity has finally made it to Aseprite!! And the gradient feature between 2 colors, with dithering options, is a sweet and unexpected bonus :open_mouth:

hi david, itā€™s always a good day when thereā€™s new aseprite update!

when testing pressure sensitivity feature iā€™ve encountered this strange behaviour:
_dither-problam
ā€” pressure works fine for size
ā€” however it is inverted for dither patterns (less pressure = fg, more pressure = bg mask) and leaves me with dot at the end of the stroke
ā€” for no dither pressure doesnā€™t work at all if background color is mask. if background is another color (with alpha=1 at least) it works, but gradient is inverted again.

i know i can swap fg and bg with ā€˜xā€™ key, which mitigates the issue for dither option, but iā€™m a bit confused if it was intended this way or something is wrong on my side. i would expect less pressure = less alpha with gradient from 0 to max value (having to set alpha to 1 and switch fg and bg seems overcomplicated).

also when making fast strokes with no dither the stroke isnā€™t smooth, while with dither it is:
_fast-strokes
iā€™m on win7 with intuos3 tablet.
to be sure i restarted windows, tried again several times and checked in photoshop if tablet works as usual.

Hi @Olga_Galvanova! yes, the fg/bg are inverted weā€™re going to fix that (reported by other user via twitter). The brush size also should make more sense if indicates the max size (and the dynamics will show min/max size, but the max size will be the same as the brush size, right now brush size=min size which doesnā€™t make too much sense for most cases). Also colors with opacity as you see will not work as expected, a long standing bug that now itā€™s more visible with dynamics, to be fixed for v1.2.19.

Hey! First of all, I want to say that I love workign with Aseprite on my macbook :slight_smile:! Unfortunately since this update, a lot of bugs came into play. The slice option is pretty much unusable now, as I canā€™t make new slices. Next to that there are drawing errors :frowning: hope you can look into this

EDIT: Hmm, it seemed that my file was corrupt. There were some slices in there of over a BILLION pixels wide, which also caused the drawing errors. For me the issue is fixed now, but Iā€™m not sure if it might happen again in the future of other users

EDIT 2: It happened again. Every time I open the document, about 8 slices become 1634467863 pixels wide and high. Iā€™m not sure why this random number, but maybe itā€™s useful for you :slight_smile:

Hi,
Iā€™m trying to use the new ā€œpressureā€ feature that Iā€™ve been waiting for so long, but it doesnā€™t seem to work.
Iā€™m using a Wacom Cintiq 13 on Windows 10 and all I did was selecting the option ā€œpressureā€ and nothing happens. Am I missing previous steps to set this up properly or Iā€™m just working with incompatible tools?

Oh, and of course I tried restarting my PC and everything.

Thank you!

Just in case for the record (if someone have the same issue), the problem of @davidyj was that in the AppData folder (%APPDATA%) there were some files of an old installation:

%APPDATA%\Aseprite\data\widgets\...
%APPDATA%\Aseprite\data\gui.xml
etc.

Generally this data folder should not be in the AppData folder (it can be there in case someone wants to do some kind of specific customization to widgets or gui.xml file, but itā€™s too internal, so you should know what you are doing in these cases).
