Having said that, later I noticed that it mostly only happened with these two categories, so I wasn't really worried after that. This completely threw me off, and I realized that after a while, I was unconsciously dreading changing size or brushes because of this. I have one thing to mention, though, that's both annoying and disrupting: for some brushes, when you increase the size or change the brush, there's a computational lag, even with a loading bar that says “evaluating brush directions”, and it can be quite long. There were even two particle ones, and I especially loved the Particle Background Splatter. They are fast and oh so beautiful to work with! Even if you just used this set, you-d be able to make amazing things. I was expecting these to be slower than the simple ones, but they were not. But I suspect since these are the simplest brushes, they must perform well for almost all scenarios. It was more noticeable with big sizes, as expected. Having said that, I tried in the Advanced Brush Panel disabling GPU for those that had it available, and didn't notice much difference. Of course, if you're a “default round brush” kind of painter, you'll be able to make full painting with these. Fast and SimpleĪs the name says, these are the brushes you'll sketch with or make underpaintings with. But first, I'll try the two new brush categories: Fast and Simple and Fast and Ornate.
So, as the program tells me, I can search for the term GPU in the brushes panel to see which are best for me. So, I went ahead and performed the test, and as I suspected, my best performance would come from the GPU. Knowing that I have an older computer, but new and good GPU, I was very curious to see if Painter could take advantage of my GPU, something I learned the hard way not all graphic programs do. Painter 2020 also introduces two new brush categories designed with performance in mind: Fast and Simple and Fast and Ornate. You can use the name of those performance-boosting technologies as search terms to find brushes that leverage them.
The new Performance Panel lets you quickly see whether the currently selected brush can take advantage of your system's multi-core processor, AVX2 or GPU. You'll also get suggestions on how to upgrade system components, as well as recommendations on which brush categories are most compatible with your computer. Many Painter brushes can now leverage the computation power of your system's GPU, using it to deliver faster brushing, as well as smoother document rendering and manipulation.
