## Interpolate

Morphs between the last two strokes on a surface.

> **Note:** This feature utilizes the **Stroke Count** slider.

> **Note:** ZBrush for iPad's Stroke **Interpolate** functionality works the same as in ZBrush desktop. Learn more in our external ZBrush [Stroke Interpolation](https://help.maxon.net/zbr/en-us/Default.htm#html/user-guide/3d-modeling/sculpting/sculpting-brushes/strokes/stroke-interpolate/stroke-interpolate.html) documentation.

# Lazy Mouse

**Lazy Mouse** features offer a variety of options to enhance precision and how a brush stroke applies.

## Lazy Step

Controls the spacing between the brush strokes. Lower values create more steps between the drawn stroke, leaving more space between each brush tip.

## Lazy Radius

Controls the length of the Lazy stroke line that is drawn when Lazy Mouse is active. Higher values create a longer Lazy stroke line that delays your brush stroke from applying. This helps improve accuracy along a path.

> **Note:** ZBrush for iPad's Lazy Mouse features work the same as in ZBrush desktop. Learn more in our external ZBrush [Lazy Mouse](https://help.maxon.net/zbr/en-us/Default.htm#html/reference-guide/stroke/lazy-mouse/lazy-mouse.html) documentation.

# Curve

Activate **Curve** mode to apply your first brush stroke as a curve line. A curve line can be dragged to move around the model and apply a single brush stroke along the curve path with more precision.

> **Note:** This is a powerful feature used by many default brushes. Learn more in this guide's [Brush Types](https://help.maxon.net/zbp/en-us/Content/html/5_sculpting-and-painting_brushes.html.md) section.

> **Note:** ZBrush for iPad's **Curve** features work the same as in ZBrush desktop. Learn more in the following external ZBrush documentation sections:\
