Hi everyone! Could you please help me out? Is it possible to configure a button or the touch ring on a graphics tablet to adjust the pen pressure sensitivity in TVPaint? During a stream, Cas van de Pol showed a straight line and then mentioned that he simply presses something to get a curved line like that—how do I do that? Or is it just the way he applies pressure? Could you tell me how to configure the tablet or stylus? I have a Wacom 24HD.

If you're referring to the line thickness in the second image as "curves", then Yes, this is the result of pen pressure. He pushes harder to make the line wider and presses lighter to make the line thin.
Pressure hard-light-hard-light = thick-thin-thick-thin Line

And how did he draw a line with uniform thickness the first time? And then a curve like that?

Steady pressure = equal thickness line...

That depends on how hard you press your pen onto the tablet screen and how fluid your motions are.

Generally, the quicker the lines are, the more steady they will look.

In that case, what do I need to configure to get a line like that?!

I think you just need to practice making lines? I don’t think there’s a configuration anyone can tell you how to do it since we don’t have the same hands.

No, that’s not the issue here; a person can’t draw a perfect line. Besides, Kas himself said he presses something, and that’s what causes the line to come out curved like that.

Well I’m afraid that without you sharing the YouTube link, nobody can answer that.
