Hi Sledger,
It's surely a solution but would generate a billion control points and also mean adjusting and resetting the slider at every stroke.

Excuse my confusion but because you mentioned ;
I saw the solution as getting your wish
So, zero the smoothing slider, see your line then select the shape tool and deal with the smoothing afterwards. This will reduce the 'billion control points' to something more manageable yes?
Are you sure? Certainly not for me. Once the smoothing slider is set to zero, all new strokes in the document are zero smoothing.
Hi Sledger, I meant setting the slider to zero, draw, adjusting the smoothing then re-setting the slider to zero, rinse and repeat.
I guess I was not clear, It's not the smoothing I don't like, it's the stuttering auto-feedback.
I would like it to retain the previous smoothing adjustment on creation, just like it works now, only have the option to turn off this preview.
This would behave like when you adjust an existing shape with the freehand tool.
The smoothing would occur after you release the stroke.

Marc what setting have you been using for smoothing? A setting of 10% to 25% is what I typically use.

Hi Bill, yeah I usually keep it in the first third, between 10 and 25%.
It also depends on the project and desired effect.

I'm talking about the two different smoothing sliders Marc.
The smoothing slider for the freehand tool is set and left while drawing.
Once done, select the lines to smooth and choose the shape tool to marque select the line and then use the shape tool's smoothing slider to smooth out the line.
