Hello.
I'm not new to using Sketchbook, but I've recently started to follow a course that requires a lot of sketching and drawing, which brought me to more thoroughly explore advanced features and shortcuts common to most digital painting softwares.
The teacher's favorite is Photoshop, but I find it very unfriendly for those who like a fast and smooth workflow. The only reason I endured it til now is that the older version of Sketchbook I was using didnt have the "rotate canvas" function which, I now can say, is a must.
I've even tried Corel Painter that, although some minor quirks, is quite good in terms of workflow. But it also makes things complicated where I always found them very simple in Sketchbook.
Lately a friend of mines told me that canvas rotation is now a thing in Sketchbook too, so I hastily ran to try it.
But.
But the extra steps to get to use canvas rotation and movement really ruin the mood, for me.
In Photoshop you have two keys that go straight for the two functions, as well as in Corel Painter. I press the key, rotate, release the key, done.
In Sketchbook I have to press the key, move my cursor to the right part of the "medallion" (gotta aim carefully for the right function!), move the cursor a distance from the center of rotation so that I can rotate it with more precision and...well, ****, it was about time I could get back at drawing!
Would it be possible?
The 0-9 thing is NOT a thing at all, I like to be able to fine tune the rotation and not have to wait for the canvas to tick its way to the right-ish angle.
Thank you.
