Description

Tool Strength

Controls how much effect each brush stroke has. If you're using a pen/tablet with pressure-sensing used, this will affect the strength of the tool.

Use Target Value

Enables a target value that the tools blend toward with each brush stroke.

The brush strength determines the amount of raising or lowering that can happen when using the Sculpting tool.
