The first is a Bezier curve tool with it you can draw and adjust cubic Bezier paths just as you can with other geometric primitives. Several new tools make their first appearance in this release. Many of the keyboard shortcuts are the same as those used by the GIMP.
Selection, color, and text tools, layer options, and crop/resize operations are all easy to use. Although Krita allows in-image scaling and rotation of a selection, some transformations (such as flipping and shearing) can be applied only to individual layers.Īpart from those specifics, all tools and operations in Krita are comfortably self-explanatory. Likewise, adjustment operations for contrast and color balance are located in the Adjust submenu of the Filters main menu. Pencil, paintbrush, airbrush, and eraser are the options. Here Krita takes a slightly different approach than some other editors: the toolstrip allows you to set the drawing mode (freehand or one of the geometric primitives) the style of drawing is controlled by the brush selector at the top of the screen. If you are new to Krita, you will probably notice the shape-drawing tools in the toolstrip, reminiscent of vector drawing apps, but hunt in vain for a “pencil tool” icon. You can detach all of these elements and move them around independently to suit your work preference. By default, Krita starts with all interface elements in a single window - toolstrip on the left, layer and options palettes on the right, and brush selector at the top with the menu bar.
When you launch Krita, a “new document” dialog pops up, through which you can create a new blank image via built-in template or custom settings. A separate 8-bit integer RGB mode for watercolor paint simulation is also available. Krita supports generic 8- and 16-bit integer modes for grayscale, RGB, CMYK, and YCbCr color models, 16- and 32-bit floating-point mode for RGB, 16-bit integer for L*a*b, and 32-bit floating-point for LMS. It does not utilize tilt, although the framework is in place, so tilt support may come in future releases. The program has pressure-sensitivity support for the stylus, eraser, and cursor functions of graphics tablets. Krita uses LittleCMS for color management it reads and writes embedded profiles, you can assign a monitor profile and rendering intent, apply a profile to new images, and tell Krita what to do when importing image data from the system clipboard. KOffice is built for KDE 3.3 or later Krita itself depends only on the koffice-libs, koffice-data, and krita-data packages. Krita 1.6 is included in the main KOffice source packages, and also available separately in contributed binary packages. Krita is a fully-loaded raster graphics workhorse that stands on its own. But don’t be misled although Krita comes bundled with KOffice, it is not a second-tier productivity accessory like Microsoft Office Picture Manager. The KOffice raster image editor Krita reached version 1.6 along with the rest of the office suite earlier this month.
