Thanks for your suggestion. I'm currently working on assistants, and there are many requests for different kinds of perspective-based assistants. There is no way to implement all of them. Please join the discussions on Krita Artists forum so one consistent plan can be formed. Topic about Perspective grids specifically: https://krita-artists.org/t/lets-make-perspective-grid-more-useful/44181 Topic about assistants in general (including all perspective-like assistants): https://krita-artists.org/t/planned-changes-to-assistants-coming-in-2022-or-later/43064 From your request I caught one thing I haven't thought about which is usefulness for animation. I added it as item F155 on my spreadsheet with all assistant requests, but note that this is something that will probably take plenty of time before it can be implemented. This assistant is basically the only kind of assistant you'd need as it can be rotated and changed in dimensions. I strongly recommend getting Jugipaint just to see how it works there, it isn't free, but it is relatively cheap on Steam (windows-only though). I'm afraid I simply can't do it justice using words alone. It makes assistants like Krita's perspective guide, or even 2 point perspective guide basically obsolete, it's that good. From your description, it doesn't sound that good, it sounds pretty limited. Only one type of perspective, and only one corner at a time. You admit the controls are inconvenient to use. You compare it with current Krita's Perspective but remember that there are plenty of other potential new perspective assistants that can be implemented like the Lazy Nezumi rulers - https://lazynezumi.com/perspective and https://lazynezumi.com/vanishingLines . In which ways Jugipaint is better than them? (That's not a rhetorical question, to make assistants as good as possible, it's best if I know advantages of different approaches). And have you read the list of improvements I plan for assistants and the Perspective one in particular? Do you think that adding a todo item to make an easy way to change a set of Perspective grids would make it on par with Jugipaint? (Also note that 2pp assistant already have this feature). Again, I don't think I do it justice with my description. I'm not a native English speaker so I blame it on that. Basically that tool can give you any perspective you want since it's basically a 3d cube you can rotate around (and move the walls of it if you need something to be further or closer to the point of view). As for the controls, those could be streamlined for Krita. Again, I strongly recommend getting it and trying it out for yourself to see how it work. A little bit of it is shown in the Jugipaint's trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1OLpjOvHUeU It is much better than anything Krita has, including the 2 point perspective assistant. Okay, so apparently Photoshop had a similar thing (apparently removed), though without snapping (or the guy in the video didn't had snapping on): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIueh7LjofQ Now imagine this, but with snapping, you can rotate it any way you want meaning that you could get any perspective you want. No more fiddling with 2point/perspective assistants, just rotate the 3d grid and get any perspective you need. |
