On a small tablet it can be wise to use the full screen canvas view and pop-up palette. This allows you to use the whole screen with your stylus and easily access different brushes and recently used colors. Note: the pop-up palette will show your favorite brushes by default and which brushes it shows, as well as how many to show, can be configured within the main Krita settings. On a small tablet it can be wise to use the full screen canvas view and pop-up palette. This allows you to use the whole screen with your stylus and easily access different brushes and recently used colors. Note: the pop-up palette will show your favorite brushes by default and which brushes it shows, as well as how many to show, can be configured within the main Krita settings.
Another helpful thing on tablets is tuning the mutli-touch gestures. The following work very well in practice: ### Multi-touch / Gestures
- Two finger tap: activate pop-up palette - Two finger tap: activate pop-up palette
- Three finger tap: toggle canvas only mode - Three finger tap: toggle canvas only mode
- Four finger drag: Undo - Four finger drag: Undo
- Four finger tap: redo - Four finger tap: redo
### Screenshots ### General Settings
#### Main Krita View With File Open - general
- window
- disable HiDPI support
- tools
- tool options location: in toolbar
- disable 'enable touch painting
- misc (when krita starts)
- show session manager
- save session on exit
- canvas input settings (use a non default profile / see above for saving fix)
- look for any gestures/touch/pen stuff that needs removing
- show pop up widget
- set to 'two finger tap'
- zoom canvas
- set gesture to five finger tap
- touch gestures
- set undo to four finger drag
- set redo to four finger tap
- set toggle canvas mode to three finger tap
- tablet settings
- adjust pressure curve
- pop-up palatte
- disable show rotation ring
- s pen actions
- click: toggle pop up palette with s-pen
- double click: show canvas only
- gestures: set all to do nothing
### Things to consider
- bug fix input profile settings: [https://krita-artists.org/t/cannot-save-input-profile-does-not-persist-on-startup-on-android/55693/4](https://krita-artists.org/t/cannot-save-input-profile-does-not-persist-on-startup-on-android/55693/4)
- s pen click button is mouse middle click on galaxy fold devices
- pop up palatte _is_ quick settings (like sketchbook puck)
- gestures in the config can likely do brush size up/dn and undo/redo
- can tune brush settings shown via the pop up palatte ui
- go through favorite brushes and set up to 10 ; these will show on the popup palatte
- use portrait mode when editing brushes ; you need the height to see everything and you can use the top of the pop-up window to move it left/right for full access
### External storage resources folder on Android
- export/prep everything you want to keep (reuse desktop default resources dir if desired)
- settings -> resources
- use the ICON that pops the android folder selector
- select the folder you want to use and grant storage permissions to it
- save settings & quit krita
- force stop krita in app settings
- (ONLY IF REIMPORTING EXPORTS) - relaunch krita and import data
- copy the resources dir you want to use to the selected folder
- launch krita. this _will_ take awhile and may look like its frozen
- clear any warnings/errors
- quit krita
- force stop krita
- relaunch and enjoy

## Disclaimer
The creator of this Obsidian vault has **NOT** included any source materials or other copyrighted material from outside sources.
## Comp Book (Vault) Layout
- Different folders for each form of art performed
- `Coloring`: For coloring pages and related materials
- `Dot to Dot`: For dot to dot pages and related materials
- `Drawing`: For drawing and sketches
- `Ideas - Inspiration`: For ideas and inspiration tracking
- `Zentangle`: For Zentangle and ZIA (Zentangle Inspired Art)
- Various sub folders to help with organization of files
- `attachments`: For files that are attached to notes
- `Complete`: For completed art works
- `In Progress`: For art that is being worked on currently or has been worked on previously
- `Prepped`: Materials that will be used for digital art later
- `Source Materials`: Source files that have been converted or adjusted based on need
- Various gallery notes to help with surfacing information and art stored within
- Look for files with `_Gallery -` as the start of the file name
- A `Notes` section that has a lot of useful information related to digital art
- A `__Dashboard` note that is meant to be the 'starting point' for the vault.
## Using The Comp Book (Vault)
- Each piece of artwork gets 3 files:
- The source file for use with a drawing app such as Krita
- A PNG or JPG export of the file to ensure notes have a good thumbnail preview of the artwork
- A standard Obsidian note to encapsulate any metadata and notes related to the artwork
- There are a number of templates that can be used to create notes to represent artworks
- See the `Command Palette` and `From Template` items as well as the `_Templates` folder
- Each template will place a new note in the main type of art folder
- Each template will prompt for a number of common metadata items on creation to help auto-fill metadata and other details
- Each template will have a `To Do` section at the top with prompts for additional steps you may want to take
- The newly created notes should have the source file and any png/jpg files attached to help with thumbnails and to help keep files organized
- Once a new note is setup with the desired information it should be moved to an appropriate sub-folder to ensure it's auto-added to an appropriate gallery
- Each gallery uses queries to find the notes shown based on folders
- You do *not* need to manage the galleries directly
- Art works should flow between sub folders as progress is made. For example: `Prepped` -> `In Progress` -> `Complete` for order
- The files in the `Notes` section are non-indexed and exist as a generalized list of topics in the file browser. This can be changed to match your preferences.
- The `Ideas - Inspiration` folder does *not* have sub-folders and assumes you'll just keep a list of notes similar to the `Notes` section or adjust this area to match your preferences.
- The [__Dashboard](__Dashboard.md) is meant to be 'the starting point' and 'overview' for the whole vault
## New Artwork General Workflow
- Prep downloaded files
- Convert source material to art app native format
- Setup any necessary layers
- See [Coloring Page Quick Reference](Notes/Coloring%20Page%20Quick%20Reference.md) for coloring pages
- See [Dot to Dot Quick Reference](Notes/Dot%20to%20Dot%20Quick%20Reference.md) for dot to dot pages
- Create page for artwork using the appropriate template
- Link files to new artwork page as appropriate
- Move artwork page to appropriate sub folder
- Sync vault to other devices if needed
- Open file in art app
- Make art

## Enjoy
There isn't much more to this vault than stated above. Feel free to explore and adjust this vault as you see fit. This is meant as a rough guide, inspiration and/or starting point.
I use this vault for all my digital art and it's been a huge help for me. I hope it, or a variation of it, can do the same for you.
