Settings

The gear button opens the settings menu. Everything that is not a painting tool lives here, and this is the full list in the order you meet it.

Worth knowing

  • Mirror Mode is per layer, not per project. Switching layers switches which symmetry is active.
  • Left Handed and Use Pressure are app-wide, so they carry across every project.
  • Resize Canvas applies when you close the menu. Typing a size and then reopening the menu without closing it will not resize anything.
  • Stabilization is a per-project setting and is saved with it.
