I downloaded the software last night and was having the jagged problem until I found this video today wow thanks.

Aw yay! Glad to help!

I've been using it for a couple years now and just now got to this video... I just thought my technique was wrong. Turns out It was my settings.

This guy has two accents which change whenever they please. And I’m not complaining. It sounds cool!

[@TutsByKai]

Hahahah! Never heard that I had an accent before :D Thanks pal!

[@malanrizki2168]

I love language with distinct accent

[@sethorus5828]

[@samanthabrooke2467]

Also make sure stabilizer is on too, it helps alot with making lineart not shaky! (As a beginner i had no idea about a stabilizer but it helps a ton now)

[@AnotherCoyote]

Why is no one else talking about the Stabilizer setting in addition? Your comment needs more up votes.

[@goldenarri]

How? I can't find it

[@Abstractical]

[@100lovenana]

I'm with ​@@goldenarri here. Where is the stabilizer in Krita?. Is it in brush settings? Edit? Tools? View?

[@OceansbutalsoLakes]

@@goldenarriI can’t either….

[@altbungaming9357]

I am so glad i found this video. Im new to digital art and Krita and have been noticing the jaggedness of my lines and it was bugging me. Thanks for such an easy fix!

[@TutsByKai]

I'm just seeing this! First off, welcome to digital art!

[@SMK-jl4gn]

Fr im so fu king thankful😭😭

[@jasonalcatraz5817]

This really does make a difference in my lineart. Thanks Kai, short, simple, explains what's wrong and gets to the point without being a slog to listen to.

[@TutsByKai]

Thank you so so much! I really do appreciate that

[@craftmator6410]

OMG KAI, thank you so much for this! I just got my drawing tablet and I'm switching to digital art. But I got so confused about the weird lines, but I ignored it and I was like "I guess these kinds of stuff happen to a beginner". After I finished this tutorial, my lines became smoother and it makes it so much easier to draw and have fun. Love your short n sweet tutorials as always Kai, keep it up!

[@marry6merra90]

OMG SAVED MY LIFE THANK YOU😆

[@TutsByKai]

AWESOOOOME! Glad to be a life saver

[@artbyamarvin8253]

Your videos are exactly what i needed. thank you :D

Thank you :) I'm glad!

[@amel-rh8rq]

You know what this is the first time I'll be thanking someone in an art related vid, THANKYOU

[@FeritTheBandit]

Hey I don't have an interest in krita but I saw your thumbnail and decided to stop by and like the video and comment because that is a dope thumbnail. Easily caught my eye. Good Job!

[@tripwire202]

In summary: Make sure the spacing on your brushes is set to auto, and jaggedness begone! :D Thank you amazing dude on the internet.

[@TutsByKai]

Haha! Pretty much, and thank you very much :D

[@magicmegs6560]

Thank you SO much! I've been frustrated by the krita brushes as I couldn't get that profesh line art. I'm glad I found your tutorials!

Of course! ALWAYS glad to help

So glad to be able to finally help you out!

I was struggling trying to figure out how to fix this. Thank you so much!

[@weirdNwacky1995]

Real gentleman always helps u are the freaking legend

[@summa1999]

Suddenly it works!!!! Not sure why it didn't when I did this before but still very happy:)

[@magnusm4]

This is my first step towards getting good tools. It's been frustrating seeing tutorials and videos of people doing ONE stroke and making a masterpiece. They get the smooth shading and clean shadows. Meanwhile I paint mona lisa in one single part and it looks pixelated like here. I do an entire character and somehow IT LOOKS LIKE MS PAINT!

[@theventus]

BRUuh ! I was legit about to delete krita cus i was fed up with my end product looking jagged cus of the lines being shit when i saw your vid ! Thanks a TON !! I subbed for what its worth !

[@vibezmuse8159]

I just started with digital art, you have been a great help! Thanks!

[@kittycorn1]

DAYUMM and i was crying my eyes out cuz of the white spaces left when i use paint bucket tysmmm man

[@martuchna2063]

SUCH. A. EPIC. PERSON, PERIOD!

[@jillmont3342]

My lines are still not smooth but they did get smoother than before but they look nothing like yours

[@arinanator1319]

sameee

[@iany1606]

Mine are not changing at all, can’t figure out why :( They are so pixeled

[@iany1606]

I think i figured it, i was using 300х300 canvas, needs to be minimum 1500x1500, otherwise the line is pixelated

[@soyelah5604]

@@iany1606 same

[@iany1606]

@@soyelah5604 what canvas size are you using? Mine was too small, try 2000px by 2000px or at least full hd (1920x1080). I mean when you create your krita document set it to 1920px 1080px and at least 72 ppi

[@ethedona]

Also check if the brush precision is turned low, some default brushes like airbrush have it set to 1 and it makes awful lines, best to set it to auto.

[@sittingtreeva927]

I'M SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS *MY GOSH*

[@masterluisYTV]

damn dude. dope channel!! my question is how da hell do you get the lines from being fuccking wobblly. want them to not be crooked. any ideas?

[@TutsByKai]

Thank you very much :D Try taking a look at this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIGwnXqroqhkZtE may help you out a bit :)

[@Heaview]

I've remade a DBZ scene, and noticed this horrible borders the lines got. Thabks for that, gonna help a lot from now on!

[@Themostadorablepenguin]

Bro... Wtf that's amazing I just did it and it worked!!!! THANK YOU!!

[@tamsharma5029]

Nice to c it worked for everyone but not for me

[@zombrexgame6670]

I was hoping to find to take off the pixels but it didn't work. But now the lines are much more smooth though, thanks!

[@TutsByKai]

🤙💖

[@sandraalbrecht3034]

seems like this doesn´t work anymore.... i have the same rigged line problem but for some it looks even worse with auto on.... v-v

[@joshisworried2253]

Could also be they have the DPI/PPI too low. By default it's 300 but if you change it to 600 it helps a lot as well.

[@ThrilledSamuraiAnimations]

Mann this was so helpful Thx for this dude...

[@charlespoirier8527]

Thanks I just noticed this happening I will check to see and make the adjustment .

[@stefan7484]

For some reasom spacing at 0,02 is perfect for me

[@TutsByKai]

Go for it!

[@Rhinstovia]

Omg! Thank you...thats useful 😭😭😭

[@TutsByKai]

Thank YOU!

[@CryoDrago]

Just a heads up, auto spacing actually makes the lines *worse* when using a smaller brush size.

[@alicedelacerda3915]

Thank you man your the best I'm getting back to art an you help thank you

[@pristinepastel]

OH MY GODS I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE MY PPI WAS TOO LOW THANK YOU;;

[@crazyBloodmonkey]

yeah i came back to this video because i was having this problem again and auto was already checked. but i guess i figured out my problem i've only benn using the pens and i always draw my lines in 5. so i guess i need to actually use brushes and use a little thicker lines. i also need to make a fills layer. i'm not sure why i don't remember krita 4 doing it but in krita 5 using the paint bucket tool for coloring just destroys the lines for some reason. maybe it always did that and i just never noticed but yeah i guess this video still helped me out lol.

[@wickidauraz]

Thank you so much for this helpz SOOOO muchezz

[@wickidauraz]

i was wondering something does it have a setting like infinity painter the like adjustment ? I cant remember was the functions name is 😁

[@carmenhan9274]

My brush changed and became all jagged within the same project. I checked and the spacing - Auto is checked, it's on, and at 1. Having the same brush smothing selected (weighted) the lines look very pixelated, even when using the assistant (the lines drawn using the spline assistant look worse than those drawn free hand !). I changed it to Stabilizer but there was absolutely no difference. I can't figure out what settings might have inadvertedly changed, as I did not modify anything in the brush editor from the freehand phase to the spline phase. A suggestion would be very much appreciated, thank you.

[@googleyoflolz9930]

the person in the video might have. But also this person is only responding to positive comments so... might not get any help. I haven't gotten any either. Same thing happened to me where I checked auto on spacing and it made it 100x worse.

[@hidatakyomi]

This really saved my time (i tried it with my pen tablet) ;-; Also imagine the day they add more editable vector fonctions like clip studio ^^ Apparently they're going to work on it after the release of Krita 5.0 Soon I'll try Krita on S7 I hope it'll still great :0

[@introspectiver1787]

Thanks!

[@erfirebeard1355]

It also helps when you turn the pixels up when you start a new project 😬
