I've using clip for almost 2 years and i'm surprised that i barely know half of them, very underrated video man thank you

[calcumalations]

If you click C you can make your brush transparent, I use this instead of a rubber tool because transparent brushes are good for raster, then I can use the rubber (alr on vector) to remove vector lines

[Eleanor.A.C]

The best tip I've ever gotten was that Brightness to opacity can also be used when scanning line-art to be used digitally :)

I just moved to Clip Studio from a different program yesterday and I'm SO glad I came across this video - it would've taken me years to know about all of these tools and settings

been using clip studio for 3 years now and this video seriously upped my game. THANK YOUUUU

[kiena]

love watching these tips videos of programs i use regularly and be like "wow! that's so useful im definitely going to use that!" and then completely forget everything when im done watching the video

[OnzzyDayo]

I don't think anyone mentioned it on the comments or at least I didn't see it on the time I scrolled down but, while using the mesh transform tool, you can increase/decrease the number of points you can play with under the settings of the tool after you've gone into mesh transform mode. This was so useful to know back in the day when CSP didn't have liquify yet :)

[MysticalSpaceSandwich]

Clip Studio is such a great tool. It is insanely customizable and has so many features, with new ones steadily being added and despite all of that it is affordable. You didn't mention the quick access palette I think, which in essence you can convert to a small control panel for everything you want to do with the program. Especially with autoactions which are magic by themselves (I use them for example to toggle the visibility of reference layers by shortcut or create perspective rulers)

[Krr]

OMG THIS IS SO USEFUL THANK YOU SO MUCH I WILL SEND THIS VIDEO FOR EVERY ARTIST THAT I KNOW MAY GOD BLESS YOU FOR THE REST YOUR LIFE

[ashisharky]

Don't be afraid to make very simple auto actions! I have a ton setup for simple things like setting up shading and highlight layers or just applying a few simple effects! They are very handy to make things a lot quicker. Even though most of them would only take a few seconds or a minute at most having them be 1 click and no other input is very handy!!!

[tai]

knew only a few as I have been using Clip for about half a year now, but for me one of the best things is amazing selection tool, outline selection (found under edit, saved me so much time while making some designs), lock transparent pixels, also using reference layer + clip to layer below,
but yours are definitely adding to my library of tricks.

[kuubbee]

That lasso fill tool got me SHOOK. This is gonna save me so much time on filling base colours, Thank you!

[mayteexxis]

Very informative, although you didn't mention that some of these features like the LT convert, and advanced comic tools like having multiple pages in one comic document, are only available on the EX version of clip studio paint.

I just recently got a drawing tablet and started using clip studio with it. This is my first time really getting serious with digital art so there’s a lot I don’t know (I actually used clip studio when I made my pfp, and it definitely would’ve been easier with some of these tips lol). This video really helps, and I appreciate that you separated all of the tips into separate chapters so they’re easier to go back and check in the future

[hidoryy]

I think one of the best tools is the "enclose and fill" using "only white or transparent". You can paint anything you want very quickly with minimal errors

[ericb]

Number 19 is life changing. I'm always spending so long experimenting with different blend modes

[thewisecarrot]

One of the absolute best tutorials with Clip Studio. Having the book mark and description was very helpful!

[RocoPwnage]

I already know that I'll be coming back to this video for months or even years.
