Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media directed to a drawing application that enables intuitive application of a pressure-sensitive effect to a rendered stroke. Such a drawing application may receive input stroke data along including pressure measurements along a path of the stroke. The drawing application may then map the pressure measurements to respective attribute values for a pressure sensitive stroke attribute. Such a mapping results in a pressure measurement at a predefined level of pressure mapping to a default attribute value, while a pressure measurement above or below the predefined level of pressure would result in an attribute value greater than or less than the default attribute value. The drawing application may then cause a stroke to be rendered on the display in accordance with the attribute values for the pressure sensitive stroke attribute.
