Lets you specify how the tool effect diminishes from its center point to its outer edge. The falloff is represented as a curve that can be edited. This curve works similar to the sculpting toll falloff curve. See Adjust tool falloff.
The Place, Cut, and Select brushes do not have falloff.
The brush assigns a falloff value to each CV in the its radius depending on its distance from the center point. The farther a CV is from the center point, the more falloff is applied. The following falloff types use different methods to measure this distance, and produce unique results.
The Density brush does not have Screen falloff.
Use this falloff type
The Comb, Grab, and Noise brushes do not have Surface falloff.
Controls the profile (cross-section) of brushes. The falloff curve determines how the tool strength diminishes from the center towards its outer edge.
Constrains points to the Falloff curve grid.
Resets the falloff curve to its default shape.
Saves the current falloff curve to the Custom Curve presets in the Tool Settings.
Lets you quickly set the Falloff curve by selecting from frequently used shapes.
Lets you quickly set the Falloff curve by selecting from custom shapes.

Specific to brushes with Falloff Type set to Volume. Sets the radius of the region around the brush center that is used to locate the hair CV closest to the edge of the brush radius. This value is a percentage of the brush radius. Larger values increase the sampling size of volume selection and provide better overall results, but reduce the sampling accuracy, meaning the volume center is further from the camera. The default value is 0.25.
Specific to brushes with Falloff Type set to Volume. Lets you adjust the distance between the volume center and the camera. Positive values increase this distance, while negative values reduce it.
Specific to brushes with Falloff Type set to Volume. Sets the amount of offset applied to the volume each time the offset hotkey is pressed.
When on, hairs on back-facing polygons are not affected by the brush strokes.
Controls the angle of the back-face filtering. For example, when set to the default value of 90, hairs on faces that face over 90 degrees away from the camera are not affected by the brush strokes.
Determines the angle where the falloff starts to reduce the effect of the brush.
Controls the strength of the color overlay for color feedback, including Falloff and Preselection Highlight colors.
When on, color feedback indicates the falloff region of the brush stroke based on the selected Brush Falloff Curve. Use the falloff color ramp to set how the falloff curve maps to the affected hairs.
Color ramp that specifies how the falloff color feedback displays.
When on, hairs affected by the brush are highlighted before you begin sculpting. Click the Color swatch or use the slider control to change the highlight color.
When on, you can specify how the brush applies its effect along the length of the hairs from root to tip. The magnitude of the brush's effect is represented as a curve that can be edited, where far left point represents the hair root and far right point represents the hair tip.
Enable these settings to increase the control and accuracy of the brush's effect.
The Root to Tip Magnitude Control Curve has the same controls and works simular to the Brush Falloff Curve. See the falloff curve settings above.
