One of things that makes Procreate so much fun to draw in is how the interface stays out of your way. The tradeoff is that many of Procreate's best features are tucked away and hidden behind menus and touch gestures. In this tutorial I go over some of those features you may have missed when illustrating in Procreate.

When you move layers to the new canves ,drop them on layers not on canvas , it will be in right order
My guess is that the layers go on to the new canvas in the order that you selected them.
Here’s a tip for left handed users:
If you tap the tiny wrench, tap prefs, and then turn on Right Hand Interface, the brush size menu will switch sides.
So it’s easier for left handed people to use.
Ohhh, that's a good one!
I have only my left arm. And this was a game changer! I know most people don’t know about this so I’m glad people are sharing info like this 😀
THANKS CAMI, I'LL KEEP THAT IN MIND, MY PARTNER IS A SOUTH PAW SO HE'LL FIND THIS REALLY USEFUL, WHEN I LET HIM GET HIS HANDS ON MY NEW PRIZED POSSESSION. 😁
What Ipad model is he using?
I’m mostly right handed but prefer to keep my interface on my left…
This is like the only video that actually tells me new stuff lmao- I’m getting procreate for my birthday so your vids are very helpful :)
Same the wait is terrible! Not for my birthday but I bought an iPad and it's arriving in like three weeks.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT, I'M NEW TOO IT'S ANAZING ALL THAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT. ARE YOU GETTING A PENCIL WITH IT? MAYBE A SUPRISE.
HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT DAY. 🥳

3 WEEKS, OMGOSH THAT'S PURE TORTURE. LOL.
THE WAIT WILL BE WORTH IT THOUGH. . . 21 DAYS & COUNTING.
@@cheryl5994 you too, and yes I'm getting an apple pencil. We went with lowest budget with still buying new from apple (iPad 9 and first gen pencil) and i got a mobdik screen protector (10$ for 2). I am waiting very patiently (not 😄) but one concern I have is with my screen protector being pretty rough, I'm worried about the nib getting used up too quickly. Shouldnt be too much of a problem because I'll probably turn down the pressure curve (so I don't have to press so hard to get full pressure motion). I would like to hear your experiences with pressure and nib wear tho!
What Ipad model is he using?
These tips are great but I just wanna put it out here that if you drag and drop the layers into the new canvas directly into the layers menu instead of directly onto the canvas it won’t put them backwards they will be in the right order. Hope this helps anyone reading this!
Awesome thanks!!
Legend
I've been using procreate for 2.5 years but didn't know half of these, nice video!
Nice!!
Procreate also allows you to import multi-page pdf’s.
I’ve been using that feature studying vocabulary. I find the annotation options in other apps is overshadowed by procreate. Even beloved apps like GoodNotes doesn’t give me the same smooth writing experience procreate gives me.
Awesome
oh dang! I didn't know that!!!
@@thebradcolbow yeah, and the cool part is that it automatically puts each page in a separate layer.
What if the pdf has more pages than the max layer limit of the ipad?
And how can I import it into procreate? I find most annotation tools lacking
@@panda_314 I do it by saving the pdf in a folder (iPad or a cloud service). Find it via the “files” app, open it to get the preview, then right hand corner tap on the square with the up arrow, scroll the top row apps until you see procreate and tap it. Procreate opens and It gets automatically imported. It depends I guess on how much info is displayed, but in my pdfs, the max layers = 129.
Nice to see Proko as a sponsor. I was expecting skillshare lol... maybe this will become a thing
Avid Procreate user here for many years, and there were still a few things in this I wasn’t aware of! 😃 Particularly liked learning about the two-finger taps and holds on the layers to activate opacity and layer selection, as those are tools I use frequently. I’ve only ever used the two finger slide for transparency lock. Nice job, Brad!
Thanks Brad! Great tips! One aspect of quick shapes took me a while to discover. First you draw a very short line, then hold for a bit until it becomes a straight line. Keeping the stylus down, make it into a long line. You end up with a dotted line. I sketch out a lot of plans for things I want to build, so dashed or dotted lines are useful.
Wow, I had no idea about a lot of these!!! Procreate is deceptively simple, but never ceases to surprise! I always learn something new on your channel, it's my go-to for tips and tricks. Even though I've already got my art gear, I really enjoy your tech reviews, too (keeps me up to date for when I need to upgrade someday!). Thanks for all your hard work, and for making it fun! 😀
This is literally blowing my mind. A month long user and there is so much GOLD here.
Along with create palette from camera, you can also drag a picture from your canvas over to the palette menu, and it will create a palette from the most used colors in that picture.
I'm over here rolling my eyes, thinking, "what can he show me that I hadn't already seen?" And you blew my mind man!
In procreate there's a quick menu option which you can access by touching or holding on screen and you don't have to lift up your finger you can just slide on the option you want and it's done. You can change the options by holding on them and you can have multiple quick menus just click on the name in the centre. It's the best replacement for keyboard shortcuts :)
A lot of these I knew, but I still enjoyed learning new tricks. Thank you for doing this video!
Even though I use a lot of these, there were still some to learn that will help my process greatly! Thank you very much.
This is truly a lifesaving video. I’ve been using procreate for about a year and a half and all of these things are useful. I didn’t even know about them. The colour drop thing, the pure white, pure black, pure colour, the fact you can move layers to other canvases if needed. Every single one was useful and I guarantee I’ll be coming back to rewatch soon. THANK YOU BRAD.
Great video Brad thanks for helping our community
Thanks for making this Brad!! Been wondering how to do a bunch of these shortcuts for some time now.
Some great tips indeed, especially favorite brushes and copying layers to another design. Thank you!
Wow, I've been using the app for years, but you still managed to teach me a couple of tricks. Thanks! Great video!
Normally, when I watch a video about hidden features in apps I use, I often learn nothing. I love to noodle around in apps and find the little-known shortcuts. But I got at least 10 tips that I didn’t know, and very useful ones at that, about software I’ve been using since launch. Awesome vid!
This was so helpful. Thank you!
absolutely fantastic video, you've squashed all the good bits into an economical time and space
Thanks for sharing all of these!
That was an excellent video, Brad. And I learned quite a few new tricks even though I use procreate for a few years now.
whoa--just the top on bringing layers into a new project is WORTH WATCHING VIDEO for! These are EXCELLENT tips. THANK YOU!
First things first...I love you. Thank you, because you just taught me more tricks in an 8 minute video than I learned from hours of other tutorials 😂🔥🔥🔥
Great video packed with pertinent info! Super time saver! Thanks!
I had no idea about so many of these. Thank you so much!

Oh my god this is EXACTLY the kind of video I needed! Thank you so much

All of this was INSANELY useful! I might go back and use Procreate more bc these are some huge quality of life improvements
This was very thorough! Thanks Brad. I'll definitely be using these techniques to save me some headaches.

this so amazing!

3:06 is very helpful! I thought I would know all of these!
Would really love for Procreate to port to Android, but barring that, would love to see a video like this for Infinite Painter hidden features. Great video!
So concise and helpful! Thank you for creating and sharing!!!! :-)
Great Video!
Learn a lot from you're video Brad (after your course on udemy) one of the possibilities I miss is the private photo. (and file) sometimes really handy!
와,,, 감사합니다
그 레이어 선택해서 다른 캔버스에 바로 복사하는거랑 브러시 찾는 기능 등등 몰랐던 기능들을 많이 알았네요!
딕션도 또박또박하고 좋아서 영어 그렇게 잘 몰라도 알아듣기 쉬웠어요 감사합니다!
Thank you so much! You are so good at explaining. My English is not perfect but i could understand most everything!👍👍
Procreate has been my main art interface for a while now and I knew most these things but there was definitely a few that I either didn’t know or never remembered the exact gesture for
Good vid
straight to the point. I like it
Thanks!!
