    Default Is there a way to keep the line width the same?

    I'm trying to draw in little hairs using the pen tool, and every time I draw a new hair, it goes back to the old line width. Then I have to click on the new width I want.

    Isn't there a way to make it stay the same width for the time I'm drawing all the hairs?

    Hello Alina,
    You can set the line width, by simply choosing a line width with nothing selected. Xtreme will pop up a dialogue box asking if you want to set that line width as default. click set and your line width will stay until you change it.

    Thanks, Frances. I knew I had come across that by accident at some point. Thanks, I just tried it and got it to work!

    Also, you need to disable Scale Line Widths.

    If this feature is enabled (the icon is in the down position) then a .5pix line when enlarged 200% will change to 1pix in width.

    When this feature is disabled, the line width remains the same when you resize the object or path.
