On the left, a group of guides, on the right the Move tool applied.
The Move brush grabs the fibers like a magnet and moves them in the direction of the mouse pointers movement. The tool exerts its greatest influence over the tips of the fibers with an overall gradual falloff based on the brush's size and shape. The Fur brush can be combined with the Brush Tips to further customize how the brush styles the fur. The Move tool can be found in the Hair Tools sub-tab of the toolbox, found in the Paint tab of the interface. When selected, the following attributes display in the Properties panel.

Offset Amount |
The Offset Amount value determines the strength of the brush stroke. Higher values have a greater influence over the fibers than lower values. |

Edit Fur Map |
You can style fur by way of a Fur Vector Map, providing a means to control combing direction and length with an image map, producing very detailed results. All that is necessary is a Fur Layer in the Shader Tree and a Floating Point image (such as EXR) with the layer effect set to Fur Vector. Generally, the fur styling tools are meant to edit Guides, in order to edit the associated fur map, you need to enable the Edit Fur Map option. |

Screen Brush |
The Screen Brush option, enabled by default, affects all vertices under the brush tips circle, regardless of their distance. When the option is disabled, only vertices that are within the 3D sphere of influence around the brushes tip are affected. |
