Thank you for this info. Is there a way to do increment resizing for an individual layer? Like to make 1 layer smaller by one pixel at a time.

[ladybluu]

wait...how to resize the whole image without losing its pixel/ cropping at all?

I’m blind I couldn’t see the crop and resize option even though it was right at the top 😭😭😭 thanks for the information!! very helpful to my froggit brain

I need to make my file size smaller for a submission on line. My current size is 100 mb but I need to scale it down to 20 mb. I’m not sure you explained this and if you did it went a little over my head. 🙂

these videos are excellent. just wondering about increasing a canvas when the artwork is mostly complete. If going from A4 up to A2 for example, if using 300dpi, will I lose quality/clarity? will the resample solve that problem? (I always duplicate before trying)

You guys could make the cropping reversible after hitting ok… Months ago I lost a drawing I cropped to export as a preview and after quickly switching between apps procreate restarted and boom it was gone forever. If the data were still stored on the canvas it wouldn’t have happened you know?

At least have a plug or something so that the user can choose if they want it or not since it will affect the performance ever so lightly 😔

will you guys ever make a mac and pc app. I'm not saying a port as the gesture controls would be hard to implement to keyboards. I was thinking a procreate themed desktop art app. You probably wont, but it would be beneficial to those less fortunate to get a good enough iPad

I'm going to ty this out since I always use Ibis paint I wanna try something new maybe I'll use both apps aswell

[cyclonecylo]

Can u guys do none on how to get the old color drop back on procreate pocket I HATE THE NEW COLOR DROP

[Kluhi]

Will your app be available for ios 12 peeps?

[jenniferscicluna]

[bigSkibDeezIsgoated]

[eirinidimitriadou]

I have procreate ( black) and I want to learn

[self-sufficient]

What if we have to crop an image inserted in canvas.. but Not canvas.

[kkusorou]

what if i just wanna crop the image itself and not the whole canvas

[DinaSpampinato]

Could you explain more slowly? The tutorials are very useful but they always speak too fast. Procreate is used all over the world and it is difficult to understand English when it is spoken so fast. Please keep it in mind, thank you!
