Sorry for another noob question, but I'm just getting to know Krita.

Assistants are great, and the UI for adjusting them is pretty simple and self-explanatory, except for one thing: A lot of the time the assistant control widget gets in the way and makes it hard to actually edit the assistant itself. This problem gets worse when you have a number of assistants at the same time.

Like this:


Is there some fix that I've overlooked, or is it one of those things that I'll just have to deal with by zooming and rotating until it's not in the way.

Thanks!

The only thing I can think of is to use the move icon on the widget to move the assistant out of the way for a while. That's a workaround rather that a fix but it may be all you can do.

Initial contruction and then movement of assistants does snap to a grid so this may be useful for accuracy of construction and later movement/return if needed. (Use the Grid and guides Docker).

Gotcha. Thanks for the info.
