Scatter Brush

[Yosemite Sam]

Hello,

I'm using the scatter brush for the first time. I want the "bubbles" to be white by default, but I can't find a way to do this. The default color is some shade of blue. I've tried highlighting all the "bubbles" with create shape tool and changing it to a white fill, but it doesn't change it.

The only thing that worked was to select every individual bubble with the select shape tool and change it. But this is very tedious as there are hundreds of bubbles.

Is there a way to change the scatter brush bubbles to white before I begin applying them?

I'm saying bubbles because that's what AS calls them, but I'm making them very small, so they will look like dandruff.

At least I'm trying to, lol.

Thanks

Hey Sam, there are a couple of ways to do this. You can navigate to the AS root folder and go into the scatterbrush folder and open the bubble anime file. Now you can change the bubbles to a color you like and then save back into that folder under a different name like bubbles2 so you don't overwrite the original. Now it will be available under the scatterbrush menu. You might have to restart AS before it shows up in the scatterbrush menu. Another way is to draw several circles of different sizes and lower alpha values on one vector layer, then select all of the shapes on that layer and hit ctrl+c to copy them to the clipboard. You can now use the clipboard option in the scatterbrush menu. It is good to learn how to make your own scatterbrushes and how to save them for future use.
