Hi Brynn.
Great and easy to do. I could do if we want. The problem is no realtime preview, so you need to finish the path to see the variable width.
Maybe I can add a preview while drawing but this is more complex.

Well I don't use this kind of feature myself. So I couldn't say if the lack of live preview would be crippling. I'll try to get the person who posted the message to subscribe to the list, so he can give comments.
How would it work? Would it add pink nodes where the pressure is greater? And then the artist drags them after the path is finished? Or would the variable width be immediately evident when the path is finished?
And it would only work with graphics tablets?
One benefit for such a tool (it seems to me) would be that the number of nodes probably would not build up so fast, as it does with Calligraphy.
Thanks, Jabier. I'll try to get this guy to subscribe so he can discuss directly.
All best,, brynn
