I believe having the same hold system applied for clear blending mode for brush would really beneficial since you could use the exact same brush you're using without having to change the selected brush on eraser 💖

And also I believe that it'd make the UX more consistent between eraser and "brush-equivalent of eraser" which would be a great thing ✨
May I know what you think of implementing this if I may ask?

Thank you! That'd help tremendeously! 💖

Yes right now I have to flip the whole canvas but it is rather resource intensive and it gets rather slow to do over and over, especially towards the end where you have quite a lot of layers in your canvas 💦

108
That's super lovely!! 💖💖

I still think the double and triple click could also benefit from this as it gives more options to the user, thank you for your response Lucky Clan!! ✨

Oh! Thank you for the double click!!

I still think this might be nice to get implemented. Thank you Lucky Clan, loving Artstudio Pro so much 💖✨

Suggestions, Ideas, Bugs / Suggestion : Gradient Map UX
on: March 24, 2022, 01:44:54 PM
Hi, I have a suggestion regarding Gradient Map UX

Currently, on most adjustment layers, you'd only need one click if you want to modify the layer.
And I think this is brilliant since it facilitates constant adjustments.

Here's an example on Curve Adjustment Layer


This however doesn't really seem to apply to the Gradient Map adjustment layer.
Right now, you need 5 steps in total to change the gradients.
And I think, if you're trying to edit the current active gradient only, the last part is quite confusing and unintuitive as well since you'd have to select Close instead of Save
And if you select Save, it'd change your current saved Gradient Map swatches as well, which is mostly not what we want when we just want to modify the active layer.



I feel like, clicking these 5 steps whenever you just want to tweak the gradient map handle, say, a little bit to the left, doesn't really facilitate constant adjustments.

I came up with a suggestion to implement a more intuitive UI where tweaking would only require one step. I believe that most users would only need this one step most of the time. I'd love to know what you think.



Thank you! ✨

Hi, I have an idea/suggestion to implement additional gestures for the Quick Panel.

I feel like the Quick Panel is a brilliant feature especially for drawing on the iPad without a keyboard.
And I feel having these additional gestures would increase the intuitiveness, productivity, and effectiveness of the panel.

I feel like the current "tap to show Quick Panel" is brilliant and should stay. And I'm thinking of this gesture feature to be implemented additionally on top of the existing gesture to summon Quick Panel.
I'm thinking of having these buttons to be able to be selected if you hold the finger and swipe with a finger gesture, on top of the usual Quick Panel implementation.



It's quite important for me to note that having only these buttons to be available for the swipe gestures enables it to be selected with less precision than having all the buttons being selectable. For example, if you want to select Eraser, you'd just need to swipe left as far and quickly as you like. Or if you want to perform Clear, you'd only need to swipe down as far or as quickly as you'd like.

Also, I think it'd be required to implement a Deadzone around the position where you tap the screen, so that when you're just trying to open the Quick Panel by tapping, even tho you might drag it a little, it won't be registered as a swipe as long as it still falls within the deadzone.



I made this mockup to better explain how it might work

I feel like using this gesture would enable an intuitive selection of tools/functions. And since you could access it from anywhere on the canvas, it'd require a less precise interaction than, say, selecting tools on the topside toolbar. Which I believe would enable a faster more productive workflow, especially without a keyboard.

I believe this drag/swipe function could be implemented on the one-touch, double touch, and triple touch finger gestures. It might also work with the three fingers swipe gesture but I'm not really sure yet. How it works for the multiple taps gestures is to double-tap and hold on to your last tap, and drag your finger towards the tool you want to use.

Here's how I imagine the implementation for the one-touch, double touch, and triple touch finger gestures would be.

I'd really appreciate it if this could be implemented. I think this would greatly increase the productivity of using Artstudio Pro on iPad, especially when you're not using a keyboard.

Lastly, I made this mockup of how it might look like using this feature in action

Thank you so much! 💖✨

Ah me too! I have that as well! ✨

Why I think double tap works for me is because it requires less precision than hitting a small button in a small space up top. With double tap, you could do it wherever it is in the canvas and it really speed up my workflow compared to tapping the button in the upper toolbar ✨

I believe having it as a toggle-able option in preferences menu would be lovely since we'd be able to accommodate more types of workflows without ruining the existing ones ✨✨

114
Yes an option in preferences would be lovely, thank you! 💖✨

115
Ah yes I do notice that when you double tap outside of the canvas, it uses the center of the screen as anchor.

I do mean as to when you're zoomed in. I'm happy to hear that the workflow of using touched area as anchor works for you personally. I personally prefer it to always use center of the screen as anchor, as I usually uses my left hand to do the gestures. And that means that I'd always use my left side of the screen as an anchor for the mirror.

That is why what I'm asking for is an option that you could toggle in the preferences ✨✨

Hi, I have a request for the Activate Eraser, Activate Eyedropper, and Activate Smudge found here



to be available in Gestures menu here as well
(Four finger tap, three finger swipe, finger function, double tap, and triple tap)



That'd be lovely! Thank you! ✨

Suggestions, Ideas, Bugs / Mirror Tool also flips brush
on: March 19, 2022, 03:07:02 AM
Hi, I have a suggestion regarding brush usage while in mirror mode.

I'd love if there's an option to "flip brush while in mirror mode" as well.

Here's a video to illustrate my point better

Thank you! ✨

Ah I'm sorry for not being clear enough!

I put a video to illustrate my point better ✨✨
https://youtu.be/Oa4JoMjEjOc

I wonder whether an option to always use the center of image rather then where you "double tap" to mirror as anchor could be implemented. ✨

119
Thank you so much for your reply! I meant the mirror view, not the transform mirror. Have you tried mirror view using gestures in part of the canvas like double click or triple click? Or maybe four finger touch. ✨

120
Hi, right now when you try to mirror the view whether using touch gesture or quick panel, it takes the position of touch and use it as the anchor of the mirror.

Would it be possible to add option to always use the center of the screen as the anchor of the mirror regardless of the touch position?
That'd be lovely, thanks! ✨
