Brushes in general

Wed Jul 23, 2014 3:25 pm
Love the brushes, is there a single location that I can learn everything there is to know about them?

Been using it and really really hope there is either a feature I am not finding, or one planned to allow brush toolbars with the specific brushes I use often. It's very hard to remember which specific brush I was using sometimes and it isn't made easier since I am using a Wacom Cintiq Companion. I have tp pull the stylus away from the preset to see the brush tooltip. I looked on the screen but didn't see anywhere the name of the brush currently selected.

Cheers! Will try and post the two things I have done so far, I have a long way to go before I am anywhere near the quality of the awesome pictures I have seen done.

With the latest versions of Krita, the brush name in the left-hand side of the statusbar. Favourite brushes can be added to the right-click palette. Tutorials and info about brushes are linked from https://krita.org/resources.

Online Brush Tutorial

Wed Jul 23, 2014 9:49 pm
In the Brush Tutorial it talks about saving and deleting presets and shows a picture of the preset manager(?).

It would be a bit more helpful if it actually explained WHERE this window is hiding. I'm using the Windows Desktop version and can't find a hint of what it's even called. The "tutorial" seems to have skipped that.

This is a screenshot of the window:

Uhm, that's the brush-editor. It's between the currentc color/gradient/pattern and the pop-up preset/brush blending mode dropdown in the top-bar. You can save presets there.

Right now, the only way to manage presets is by actually going into the resources folder. Boudewijn is working right now on the resource manager which will all of that much easier.
