This documentation provides a comprehensive guide to the essential drawing tools available in the Brush Studio application. Whether you're using a stylus, drawing tablet, or iPad, this guide will help you navigate and utilize the application efficiently.



Tools

Brush [B]

For starting, the brush is set up for creating line drawings but you can always change the brush settings, according to your preference at the top toolbar, or by right clicking on the canvas.

Holding down [shift] on the keyboard will make the lines straight, (horizon

tal, vertical, or diagonal 45° )

Paint bucket - find this tool under the brush to fill in line work with a selected color

Eraser [E] works similarly, how the brush does.

Shape tools:

There are some shape tools for a more constructive approach (box [I], ellipse [O], line [L])


Move tool [M]

Use the Move tool to scale, adjust and rotate the selected layer.

You can select layers when the transform tool is active, by right-clicking.


Transform tool [T]:

Use the transform tool to warp layers and adjust proportions.

(Easter egg: You can even crop layers with the help of the canvas borders)


(coming soon)
Selectiontools [G]:

Choose between:
Lasso,
Brush,
or Automatic selection tools.

Keyboard Shortcuts

In a professional design workflow, it’s pretty useful to have keyboard shortcuts for the most important actions in the app. They’ll help streamline your creation process. If you already use keyboard shortcuts in other drawing apps, I’m sure it will fit nicely with your muscle memory.

(you can find them at the bottom-right corner, under the question mark icon)

Navigation

Navigating in the application can be a muscle memory exercise if you're experienced in other drawing apps. Most of the keyboard shortcuts and navigation mechanics are similar to industry standard softwares.

Unlisted:

Reseting the canvas - 'esc'

Panning - holding 'spacebar' + cursor movement

Check out the navigation in the workbench view after this page!

Future Updates

We aim to continuously add more sketching tools, such as symmetry and other advanced features, to provide a comprehensive drawing experience within a single application.
