Paint rig panel Paint rig example

The Start, End, Color and Diameter paramaters work like the same parameters in the individual strokes, but as controlling all of them as if they were a single stroke.

Diameter and Color are divided into two parameters to be able to interpolate from the first stroke to the last one, and act like a ramp through all the strokes.

You can change how this ramp works in the Interpolation section.

The order of the strokes can be changed at any time by reordering them in the layer stack.
