• Uniform — applies brushstokes with even depth and little texture
• Erase — removes depth while applying color, which allows you to remove unwanted Impasto
brushstrokes. To erase depth, you must select the Color and Depth option from the Draw To list box.
The amount of depth removed depends on the Depth value that is set. If you want to remove all
depth, set the Depth slider to 0.
• Paper — uses the selected paper grain to control the appearance of depth
• Original Luminance — uses the clone source luminance to control depth. For more information, see
“Using clone source or pattern luminance to create texture” on page 652.
• Weaving Luminance — uses the selected weave pattern to control the appearance of depth
3 Drag the Depth slider to the right to increase depth, or to the left to decrease it.
If you set a high value, you produce brushstrokes that have deeper grooves.
