Display Options: There are six different Viewport display options for the 2D Viewport Editor.

Figure 2.6

The different options will be discussed as you progress

through the book.

Tool Panels: For each of the display options there is a

different Tool Panel. The properties that display in the 2D

Viewport Editor Header change depending on which

Viewport option is selected and which Tool is selected.

Before discussing the other Tool Options, and importantly how to color Strokes, it is beneficial to

know how to Erase a Stroke once it is drawn.

2.3 Erasing Strokes

To Erase a Stroke select the Erase Tool. The Mouse Cursor changes to

a circle which you position over a Stroke then click, hold and drag to

erase. Note the change to the Viewport Header.

altering the Radius value in the Header. You may also

adjust the Strength value to increase or decrease the

eraser effect.
