This ruler allows you to draw and manipulate grids on the canvas that can serve as perspective guides for your painting. The dotted lines represent the current, actual axis of the final ellipse. They are the axis of the circle in perspective. There are two sets of lines inside the ellipse: one, solid, are the lines connecting points where the ellipse touches the tetragon. The X-like marks show the locations of the vanishing points for the perspective. The assistant consists of four points, which are the corners for the tetragon defining the ellipse. It can be used either simply, to draw an ellipse defined by a tetragon which the ellipse is tangential to, or in a perspective as an ellipse representing the perspective transformation of a circle. Perspective Ellipse ¶Īlternative assistant for drawing ellipses. Third handle, and it’ll snap to a perfect circle. To perfectly horizontal or vertical lines. If you press the Shift key while holding the first two handles, they will snap The same an ellipse, but allows for making ellipses that are concentric to each other. This assistant consists of three points: the first two are the axis of the ellipse, and the last one is to determine its width. Ellipse ¶Īn assistant for drawing ellipses and circles. You can select a type of assistant via the tool options docker. The following assistants are available in Krita: Types ¶ Krita’s vanishing point assistants in action. In the tool options of free hand brush, you can toggle Snap to Assistants to turn on snapping. They can function as a preview shape, or you can snap onto them with the freehand brush tool. The assistant system allows you to have a little help while drawing straight lines or circles.
