0% produces a soft blurred edge, while 100% makes a sharp and crisp edge (see demo for this in the original post here) 2. Hardness gives you control over the brush edge. If you decrease the value the brush tip will squeeze together in an elliptical tip, until it ends in an almost flat line at 0%. The roundness option simply defines the roundness of the brush tip as if it were 100% a perfect circle. And again, as an alternative you can type the value into the edit field. This time you must click the small dot in the bottom or at the top of the small image and drag up or down. Roundness can also be set using the small preview image. Drag the line around the circle, which will increase or decrease the value of the angle. Click on the horizontal line in the small preview image of the brush roundness.The Flip X and Flip Y options allow you to flip the brush shape horizontally, vertically or both together. Play around to adjust the spacing for your stroke, which will look different for each brush. Per default the spacing is set to 25% for the Leaf Brush. Though it’s at the bottom of the panel, lets start by exploring the Spacing, a very powerful option. I’ve also unchecked all of the other category settings to isolate just the single functionality for now. It’s best to explore them with a unique brush shape, so I’ve selected the Leaf Brush to demonstrate. The Brush Tip Shape gives us several very interesting options. We covered the Brush Presets in our previous article, so let’s start by going through the other categories. As you can see, the settings are split into several different categories. Open the Brush Panel from the toolbar or over the menu Window > Brush. The most complex settings for brushes can be found in the Brush Panel. With this one, we’ll learn how to more precisely control the brush, and push the limits of its use. In the previous article in this series, you learned the most basic information every designer needs to know about the Photoshop Brush Tool.
