What You'll Learn
Using the Stabilizer tool to correct freehand lines
To use the Stabilizer tool to correct freehand lines in Ibis Paint X, you must first create an account with your Facebook, Apple, or Ibis X account. Once you've signed in, you can access the Stabilizer function, which automatically corrects freehand lines into neat lines.
To use the Stabilizer tool, first, select it. Then, choose the degree of correction by dragging the Stabilizer slider left or right. This will allow you to draw more natural lines like those drawn by illustrators and manga artists. The "Force Fade" feature lets you precisely set the length of the start and end strokes. You can also set the Stabilizer to “Real Time” or “After”. “Real Time” neatly applies corrections when pictures are drawn hastily, while “After” produces nicer lines when drawing slowly, like tracing.
If you are drawing slowly, like tracing, it is recommended to use the "After" correction setting, as “Real Time” does not work well in this case. You can also use the “Straight Line” option in the Stabilizer tool to draw straight lines easily. If you want to go back to drawing freehand lines, simply turn off the "Straight Line" option in the Stabilizer tool.
Additionally, the “Polyline” drawing tool in the “Drawing Tool” feature of Ibis Paint X allows you to draw clean polylines by manipulating the passing points of a line. This can be used to create backgrounds or illustrations with straight lines and can be used in conjunction with the Stabilizer tool to improve the neatness of your lines.

Adjusting the degree of correction with the Stabilizer slider
The Stabilizer function in ibisPaint X automatically corrects freehand lines to make them neater. To adjust the degree of correction, open the Stabilizer tool and use the Stabilizer slider by dragging it left or right.
The Stabilizer slider allows you to choose the level of correction applied to your lines. By dragging the slider, you can set the desired amount of stabilization for your lines. This is particularly useful when you want to draw more natural lines, similar to those created by illustrators and manga artists.
When adjusting the Stabilizer slider, you can also decide whether to turn on the "Force Fade" option. Enabling "Force Fade" gives you precise control over the Length of Start and Length of End strokes. This feature is ideal for creating natural-looking lines with thin pens or brushes.
It's worth noting that the Stabilizer function has two correction modes: "Real Time" and "After". "Real Time" correction instantly applies corrections as you draw, which is useful when drawing hastily. On the other hand, "After" correction is applied after you finish drawing a line, resulting in smoother lines, especially when drawing slowly or tracing.
By adjusting the Stabilizer slider and exploring the available options, such as "Force Fade" and correction modes, you can find the right balance of stabilization for your lines in ibisPaint X.

Turning on Force Fade for precise start and end strokes
To stabilise lines in Ibis Paint X, you can use the Stabilizer function, which automatically corrects freehand lines into neat lines. This can be especially useful when drawing lines slowly, as the Real Time setting does not work in such cases.
To turn on Force Fade for precise start and end strokes in Ibis Paint X, follow these steps:
- Open the Stabilizer tool: This can be found in the Drawing Tool menu, along with other tools like Straight Line, Rectangle, and Polyline.
- Choose the degree of correction: Drag the Stabilizer slider left or right to adjust the degree of correction applied to your lines.
- Turn on Force Fade: By enabling Force Fade, you can precisely set the length of the start and end strokes of your lines. This feature is ideal for creating lines that have a thicker middle and thinner ends.
- Set the correction timing: You can choose between Real Time or After correction. Real Time correction neatly applies corrections as you draw hastily, while After correction produces nicer lines when drawing slowly.
It is recommended to practice using these tools and adjust the settings to your preference. Additionally, for drawing precise straight lines and parallel lines, consider using the Straight Ruler tool in combination with the Stabilizer.

Drawing straight lines with the Straight Line tool
To draw straight lines with the Straight Line tool in ibis Paint X, follow these steps:
First, open the Stabilizer tool. This can be found in the Drawing Tool menu. The Stabilizer function automatically corrects free-handed lines into neat lines. Within the Stabilizer tool, you can adjust the degree of correction by dragging the Stabilizer slider left and right. This allows you to choose the level of assistance you want when drawing straight lines.
Next, select the Straight Line option within the Stabilizer tool. This will enable you to draw straight lines easily without having to use a physical ruler. The Straight Line tool is especially useful for drawing simple straight lines. However, if you need to draw precise straight lines or parallel lines, it is recommended to use the Straight Ruler tool instead.
If you want to adjust the appearance of your straight lines further, you can turn on the "Force Fade" option in the Stabilizer tool. This setting allows you to precisely control the length of the start and end strokes of your lines, helping you achieve a more natural look. It is recommended to use this feature with thin lines for a more elegant appearance.
Additionally, you can set the Stabilizer tool to either "Real Time" or "After" correction. "Real Time" correction neatly applies corrections as you draw, which is useful when you need to work quickly. On the other hand, "After" correction produces nicer lines when drawing slowly, as if you were tracing.
Remember that while the Straight Line tool assists in drawing straight lines, practice is still essential for improving your overall line quality. Experiment with different settings and tools within ibis Paint X to find the combination that works best for you.
