Procreate Gestures & Shortcuts: A Complete Guide

[@Phantasticc]

Starting off and did not know, after a year with procreate, the undo and redo shortcut. This will save me so much time, thank you.

[@doodii383]

I’ve been using procreate for a couple years and didn’t know about the quick color switch, finally can switch colors quicker now, thanks!

[@HappyCloudyDays]

Wow, so I've been drawing digitally on my laptop for a couple of years and have always needed to go back and fill in all of the white edges the bucket tool couldnt reach. It's always been a pain and the most tedious part of filling. I recently got my ipad (my first apple product!) so I know NOTHING about hand gestures (except pinch). The "color fill/quick switch" technique JUST BLEW MY MIND. This is a gesture I will forever remember till the end of time LOL Thank you so much for making this video, I learned a lot!!

[@billdungan3709]

As usual another informative tutorial. One of my favorites it by touching the screen it will select that layer. No keyboard

[@BeeJayDeL]

Thanks Bill!

[@marksmit7864]

Hey BeeJay, I actually got my first iPad yesterday and started working with Procreate from the getgo. Just wanted to let you know I really enjoy your video's! So clear and straight to the point, it's really motivates to try out all the stuff you're explaining. Thanks my man keep it up!

[@BeeJayDeL]

Thanks for watching Mark and glad that they help! Enjoy the new iPad and feel free to show off some of your work over in the FB group!

[@jalpabhavsar1702]

[@catboyuke]

[@BeeJayDeL]

Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate you watching!

[@chibavu1401]

Oh my god this is so helpful, thank you so much, it’s like I was only use 10% of how useful procreate is until now. Thank u for making this video.

[@BeeJayDeL]

Glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching!!!

[@bradtbickford]

Newbie here, thanks for sharing. Love all the videos, they are really helping me learn procreate and cartooning. Thanks again!

[@BeeJayDeL]

So glad to hear! Thanks for watching!!!

[@sammyn.3D]

You deserve way more subscribers, as usual awesome tutorial, clear concise and informative. Been using procreate for 6 months now and your video already helped streamline my workflow

[@BeeJayDeL]

Thanks so much...subs have been steadily growing so I'm happy with the growth so far-just really like providing content! Hearing comments like this makes it all worth it! Thanks again for the support!

[@BeeJayDeL]

@@Glenno54 Thanks for watching! Glad I could help and appreciate the feedback!

[@ajitpandey4087]

Thanks for a handy set of info, is there an easy way to take a screen shot with cropping ? Without using home button

[@KurotsukiRei]

I have my ipad pro from a couple of weeks ago and you sir have save my life. I was used to draw with SAI and my huion tablet and I was pretty lost with Procreate. With your tips is a little bit easier now. Thanks!!

[@BeeJayDeL]

So glad to help! Hope you enjoy the new iPad!

[@healthyLifeWithRenee]

Very helpful Thank you. How do you right click on an Ipad touch screen?

[@madsnygaard6444]

Late to the party but what a gem of a vid - thanks a lot! 🙂

[@sanysmail]

Hi - is there a gesture to dynamically adjust brush size while drawing or blending instead of going to the sliders on the side everytime to adjust?

[@yonderobserver8135]

this is like a fire hose of information! Thank you-2 quick questions. In layer controls, I don't see "no action" as a choice-which I would like, and -- what does Isometric guide visibility mean? Thank you again!

[@BeeJayDeL]

Not sure what you mean by "no action." As far as Isometric Guide...that is Procreate's Drawing Guide feature that allows you to choose between 2D Grid, Isometric, Perspective, and Symmetry (lets you adjust the guide/grid for three dimensional designs.)

[@GraffyteDA]

Hey man! Just wanna say thank you for all your tutorials. I’m not that good at drawing cartoons and I really wanna learn how. Your videos point me in the right direction so thanks again. I noticed you use your fingers for circles and I have a suggestion if you’d like and if you haven’t tried it already. Tap your pencil down onto the iPad creating a dot, add full pressure, make your circle, hold for resizing then release. I found that doing so gives you an even circle verses just drawing one which of course leaves a tapered start. Hope that helps. Happy drawing! ☺️

[@BeeJayDeL]

Glad the videos help! Thanks for the tip...I'll have to give it a try!

[@johnnymula2305]

Im new to your channel, and new to procreate as well. This tutorial helped immensely! Thank you!

[@BeeJayDeL]

Glad to hear that the video helped! I appreciate you watching!

[@GratefulThird]

Fantastically helpful. I am so appreciative!

[@BeeJayDeL]

Glad I could help! Thanks for the kind words!

[@theluke3065]

A year late to this video and it was more helpful to me now than ever. I just never used stacking cause I didn’t know how to use in until today, thanks Bee. While everyone probably already knows but I just discovered that if any one wants to stack multiple artworks in one folder without having to deal with that mundane pause over and over is to grab the bigger stack and carry it over the individual artwork. It will then combine as big stack. Do this as many times artworks it will allows. I Hope that this was helpful. It was for me. Thank you again B for the all the useful tips and information. Would be cool if programs or apps like this have included a hands on tutorial every time it updates so the experience shows all if can offer. But I guess that’s why you and likeminded are here for😄

[@sillynapalm]

This was amazing. It covers every single question I had. Thanks

[@ElTorroTheMan]

Nice one Bee, a few i didn't know about. :D Thanks!!!

[@BeeJayDeL]

[@scyllareese4727]

Because when i started procreate i accidentally moved it higher but i dont know how i did it!🙂🙂 I hope u can help me with this problem!🙂🙂 AND ALSO THANK YOU SO MUCHH❤️❤️🙂🙂 this tutorial video is super duper HELPFUL THANK U❤️❤️🥺🥺

[@miken7020]

Awesome video and THANK YOU! Side question....what kind of brushes to you like using when inking/lining?

[@miken7020]

Saw you already responded! Thanks dude!!

[@scottygaado3230]

Great Info BeeJay! Thanks!

[@BeeJayDeL]

Thanks Scott!

[@gemlenz]

great video. Mine doesn't let me drag the color into a shape. Any Ideas?

[@simmonskrystal]

Thank you so much for this! So useful. You mentioned clearing the layer. Is there no way to delete one?

[@sammyn.3D]

If you swipe the layer from the layer interference you should see the option to lock duplicate and delete

[@BeeJayDeL]

Glad to help! As far as deleting the layer itself...I don't think there is a gesture to do so-just swipe the layer to the left to give you the delete option!

[@fredpollardsingsforyou3093]

Excellent❤

[@randomfloofwarriordragonsa6223]

This is really helpful thx! But I couldn’t help seeing some tree brushes,,, how did you get them? May I ask?

[@BeeJayDeL]

Something I download years ago...not even sure where I found them, lol!

[@AnnMarieG]

Hi love your video's, I'm hoping you or somebody else can help ... when I draw a line and hold my pencil it doesn't go straight and I can't do the shapes either! Is there maybe something that is switched off that should be on? 🤔

[@BeeJayDeL]

That is a default feature (no need to turn on.) What version of Procreate are you running?

[@AnnMarieG]

Not sure what version of Procreate but when I look in purchased apps it says compatibility ios 13.2 or later and I've noticed my iPad needs updating 🙄 again, do you think that's why then? 😏😆 UPDATE: have updated my iPad and Procreate and the lines still won't go straight! 🤔

[@toshasworld7205]

thanx so much, really need the encouragement. Drawing runs in my family n I’m so in love with it, just started my channel n it’s just starting to grow slowly but surely. Hopefully I’ll get out there on day. God bless

[@BeeJayDeL]

Tosha’s World Keep at it and don’t give up!!!

[@jazzyszxsxs]

Just a small question, how do you turn off like the drawing bar where you change opacity, size, choose color, brush that type of stuff?

[@KarenTookTheKids]

Tap with 4 fingers
