My drawing process is quite simple, I try to use only the very, very basic tools In my process I use, and was using at the time the error occurred, the following tools: - Brush/Eraser (a very basic brush, nothing special, no textures or other “advanced” features, just pressure sensitivity and a regular round shape) - Selection (mostly Freehand Selection) in combination with Transform Tool (Move, Resize) - Pan and Zoom Occasionally I was able to Undo <last action> via the Edit menu (I have the Undo hotkey unbind). I could also turn Dockers on and off (Settings > Show Dockers). And create layers, but I create the most common layers - Paint Layer. When I use the Freehand Selection tool, it also automatically creates a Selection Layer. I may have also used Mirror View (View > Zoom, Rotate and Mirror > Mirror View). I think that's it for now. I don't think I've missed anything - the tools described are my usual process, and it's unlikely I was using anything complex/advanced at the time, because I try to keep my approach as close to traditional as possible, minimizing all digital “advantages”. I try to use only the simplest brush and eraser, and so I don't even use Undo - only when I'm checking the brush on the canvas and I need to remove a stroke that was applied during the check, but I don't use Undo in the actual painting process, just the brush and eraser. Eventually I plan to even abandon the Transform Tool, but... for now, it's a bit difficult for me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
