>increased performance

>>3947990
i have no problems with performance, yet.

Ability to handle canvases over 4000x4000 without dumping in performance

>>3947995
or you can do it partially with 1000x1000.

Is there a way to set the eraser hotkey to a different brush?

>>3947988
>More Kiki porn

I really want a text tool for sai

>>3947995
For me Krita handles 6000*4000 well enough and i think it can go bigger.
But i run it on an OCd 2700x with fast ram.

I did check the 4.2 alpha.
The pomissid features are
>Higher performance
>Ability to resize the layer previews in the layers tab.

On top of that the only thing i could ask for is to rip off the photoshop's replace color feature.

Replace color is the only thing i really miss from PS. IT was so helpful for fine adjustments. And to me it doesn't sound like something difficult to implement either.

>>3947988
>using pipette tool
Why would anyone ever use the pipette tool when alt+click picks the color and then gets you back to the brush tool.

Although it would help if the erazer was a separate tool.
It would allow me to paint with one brush and eraze with another

>>3948008
I think being barebones is the Sai's feature.
Feels like driving on manual transmission or playing on highest difficulty.

>>3948003
sadly, not that Ive seen, but you can make it a different size from the brush

>>3947988
why can't kiki be real bros?

FUCKING gimme the sdk clip studio

>>3947988
I want the devs to make the program work normally on every computers before adding more features which only bring more bugs. And also stop rejecting the fault on Windows.

I had troubles with Krita and disabling graphics acceleration made things better (it was still clunky, but usable).
Until they made 4.2. Now nothing runs properly, it lags and eats up my CPU like hell.
It's great to add HDR compatibility, something no one will use for years, if people can't even draw properly.

Oh and
>Returning to previous tool after using pipette tool
When you press ctrl+left_click it should select a color and then return to the previous tool like you said.
You can also set this shortcut on your right click to be more efficient, if you don't use the pop-up menu.

>>3947988
>HSL/HSV color sliders

I can't believe that it been almost a year now and the devs STILL haven't brought back the color sliders. It's not like compared to every other feature, the color sliders is very complex to implement. They should have given this to one of their "summer of code" students to knock this out right quick.

They even completely overhauled the artistic color selector docker before adding the color sliders again, pic related. It's not that it isn't cool though and I probably won't use it, I just wish both could have been released in 4.2

>>3948008
Just import whatever you was working on to Medibang and use Medibang's text tool. That's what I do with Krita because it's text tool is still annoying to use.

>>3948064
>It's great to add HDR compatibility, something no one will use for years, if people can't even draw properly.

I guess the HDR painting is kinda cool but compared to the other things in Krita that could be improved like the resource management system, HDR painting felt like near the bottom of the list importance. Not even linux users can use HDR right now. Only windows users can.

Why exert so much effort into a feature a very small minority of users will use?

>>3948014
I wish Sai just had slightly more features like CSP. I've tried to make the switch but using CSP's brushes don't feel nearly as smooth and comfy as Sai's.

>a tag system that works and isn't a broken mess

>>3948012
The eraser on the back of your stylus works as a separate tool.

>>3948150
>Why exert so much effort into a feature a very small minority of users will use?
because HDR in krita is sponsored by intel.

>>3948886
Sometimes it feels like the tagging system works at random when I try to import a new bundle. Sometimes it can correctly create a new tag/group for the bundle but other times it doesn't work and you have to look through the "all" tag for the brushes you just installed.

I would like a overhaul of how the brush presents are organized too. Even if it's something a little like this

>>3948909
You're right

https://krita.org/en/item/krita-4-2-0-the-first-painting-application-to-bring-hdr-support-to-windows/

>>3948955
Forgot pic

It would be nice for them to finally allow users to move the brush presents around at least. And I wish I can see more than one brush present group at the same time

>>3947988
I miss the 'contrast' slider, which was available in the earlier versions.
Yes, I understand that you can just mess around with levels and curves to get the same result, but using contrast slider is both faster and easier.

Also this: >>3947990 would be nice. But to be honest it could be that my 12yo laptop with 2gb of RAM just isn't good enough any more.

>>3948004
is there any? I mean good

>>3948021
now there's a project for Google's SoC

Am I the only one who thinks UI wise Krita is a fucking mess?
Now that I think about it. Almost every foss graphics editor has shit UX right now.
Even Blender 2.8 in many aspects is somewhat of a downgrade from 2.7.
Inkscape is serviceable I guess.

I want some features OUT. Like for fuck's sake devs, either add in a "default" layer modes category or get this off Krita.
Noone 's gonna think "I sure am glad they added fucking Destination Atop as a layer mode".
What the fuck is Avallon!

>>3949289
>>3947994

this will never happen
because everything that's simple and fast means SAI.
and krita devs fucking hate sai

also most people complain shit their about drawing software
compared to sai in some regard.

and SAI still doesn't have mesh transform.

>>3949289
You can check the boxes on the layer modes that you use and uncheck everything else, then collapse the menus and enjoy only the modes you need.

>>3949318
SAI isn't actually fast when it comes to huge canvas and brush performance.

Performance vise its PS>Krita>CSP>the rest

>>3949324
that's a fucking lie and you know it.
all my toasters know it. even my toshiba portage m200

stay away adobe shill

>>3949324
During again with the ps is got bullshit. I legit wanna pirate it so bad.

>>3949328
Dunno about toasters but when you have a good GPU 500-1000px brush only works well in PS or Krita.

>>3949349
>good gpu
>toaster
lol.

dude my old gtx560 which is faster than your "common" today's gpu for laptops. is not near enough for krita. everything else works fine.

Is anybody on Windows 1903 having issues with their pen? After upgrade my pen is jittery and laggy no matter drawing software. I am frustrated and don't know what to do.

>>3949318
>drawing kiki in SAI
oh man, that's heretic

>>3948008
SAI2 has text.

>>3947988
Paint.NET

>>3949433
>windows 10
enjoy your weekly pack of bugs.

>>3949436
im an anarchist. what can i say.

>>3949445
also these kind of brushes

>>3949451
edit > invert selection
what actually needs is export file without flatten the damn file. you can ctrl-z but come on.

>>3949456
Oh man is this a new feature? I need to update.

>>3949456
does it have spacing?

>>3949475
>Spacing 89%
It's right there

>>3949475
>>3949456
my bad didn't read ignore this >>3949475

>>3949465
it was before as an option in the brush settings in sai2. not is a proper tool

>>3949475
yes. i made the chain myself btw

>>3949456
>>3949477
i have ver 2 but i don't have the spacing option? is sai updating their program monthly now?

>>3949482
Looks like there were two updates just this week, go get the newest version.

>>3949487
gotta buy it now does the transform tool have a warp option?

>>3949490
Not yet, it seems.

>>3949482
>>3949487
not yet. but i guess is in the list for the dev .
after all is a one man software.

like 3 months to get some new shit.

There's already a "Favourite" layer modes category, thats what the checkboxes are for. Anything with a checkbox shows up in the Favourites category.

Liquify tool in photoshop

Procreate
>Gradients
That's it for me. For the longest time you couldn't even crop your canvas, they didn't have ellipse tools, they didn't have text, they didn't have mesh transform or liquify. They added all those things recently so it's 99% of the way there but I'm still really wanting some good ol' fashioned gradients.

I don't know if they've improved text yet. But if not, text needs some serious work. Aside from that, I'm happy with the program.

>>3947988
>Returning to previous tool after using pipette tool
Just use CTRL+click.

>>3947988
Flash
pretty much everything from the UI to the symbols to the brush.
the only problem is that animate is shit and cs3 is starting to struggle with the files.

import images as frames would be a nice add on.

>>3952439
nvm I am a fucking dummy

>Sai
Dark theme, sai it too fucking bright, it fucks up my value and colour perception

Photoshop needs to overhaul its shortcut system

>>3952444
how do i change theme?

>>3952489
is an image edit , you dork.
you can change the font in the config file, just saying-

>>3947988
a complete rework of the pen stabilizir to make it as good as sai/csp's.
we have FOUR (4) different modes and ZERO (0) of them can hold a candle to those.

>>3947988
A separate button for eraser and brush

>>3954437
just create a eraser brush.

also thanks to krita I got used to not use the actual eraser in SAI.

>>3947988
I really want some filter fuckery in CSP. Sometimes I just want to make a simple colored sketch for my social media post of the day and slap a filter on the color layer for some texture. Does Krita have photoshop filters? I might install it just to give a pass to my drawings.

>>3954454
photoshop filters?
no.
krita filters. you can actually use Gmic filters and shit.

test

>>3948004
>More Kiki porn
How would such a feature work?
A button that creates randomly generated Kiki porns for reference?

>>3947988
I wish Krita would show your X/Y position on the canvas. Apparently they won't add it because such a thing destroys performance.
