You may mix both animated and either directional or rotating features into one brush. Use both options desired ("<code><b>frames=<i>N</i></b></code>" and "<code><b>directional</b></code>" or "<code><b>rotate</b></code>"), in separate lines in the brush's "<code>.dat</code>" file. </p>
As of Tux Paint version 0.9.34, brushes can be configured to continuously pick random directions as you draw with them. </p>

You may mix both animated and either directional, rotating, or chaotic features into one brush. Use both options desired ("<code><b>frames=<i>N</i></b></code>" and "<code><b>directional</b></code>", "<code><b>rotate</b></code>", or "<code><b>chaotic</b></code>"), in separate lines in the brush's "<code>.dat</code>" file. </p>
<p>
For directional brushes, lay the brush out so that each 3x3 set of directional shapes are laid out across a wide PNG image. For example, if the brush is 30x30 and there are 5 frames, it would be 450x90. (The leftmost 150x90 pixels of the image represent the 9 direction shapes for the first frame, for example.) </p>
