Adjust the smoothing level.

Adjust the smoothing level.
Or you could try showing us a picture or something, instead of just saying "different"

It's NOT hard to explain. When using brush, go to properties, then lower the number that has smoothing next to it. That makes the vector function go away a little.

Hi, I'm kitsune, and I completely missed the point.

i dont get it? how is it diffrent?
1) if the leg is all bumpy and what not then simply up the smoothing
2)if the leg seems to be larger in some spots then lower the smoothing
3)if the leg goes everywhere simply stop having seizures while drawing.
in all seriousness i have no idead without a picture what you mean.

Where have you been Fringo? Haven't seen you in ages.
ONTOPIC;
Smoothing is how much it automatically corrects your brush strokes when you draw, each person uses different smoothing levels based on how steady their hand is, so if I draw a really bumpy looking line, the smoothing will correct it, but if I make it to bumpy and my smoothing isn't high enough then it could curve the line in some places instead of making it straight To raise or lower smoothing [you'll have to find your specific smoothing level on your own]. Select the brush tool and look in the properties tab. There should be a smoothing option you can change. Also, find your own zoom in size and brush size, its all based on how you like to draw. No one started out with perfect stick figures and awesome animations. It takes practice, stop trying to find shortcuts.
Also, get a tablet if you're serious about animating, mouses suck for animating.
