The Workspace

Every artist needs an easel

PreviousTools and FunctionsNextThe Tools - in depth

Last updated 1 year ago

These are the basic features you will be using in the Paint Tab. All other tools will be explained further in The Tools - in depth

The Canvas

Everything takes place on this canvas. You can start by dragging an image here.

Images added to the canvas will get dropped at the top-left corner of the bounding box.

Either drag the image here from a folder or your desktop, or drag the image in the starting image space onto the canvas, or paste it from the clipboard (ctrl+v), or use the #import-image button.

The buttons at the top offer you a selection of tools to use in this space.

The Bounding Box

The bounding box can only be interacted with when using the Bounding Box (K) tool

The Bounding Box is the dotted rectangle on the canvas. It is the space currently being worked on.

Can be moved by clicking on the dotted line Size can be altered by clicking on the square nodes.

Does not need to be over the whole image but, The AI can't see anything outside the bounding box. Just to be clear about that. Anything outside the bounding box does not exist to the AI

If you don't have enough relevant parts of the image in this bounding box for the AI to reference, it will have a hard time making the changes you ask for.

Layers

New images will be placed onto different layers. Each layer can be moved independently. Opacity can be adjusted. Layers can be merged together.
