Procreate Basic 3

Question 1

What is the purpose of the 'Reference' layer option in Procreate?

Accepted Answer

Lets the color fill tool use that layer as a boundary while painting on another layer

Answer

Setting a layer as Reference allows the ColorDrop fill to respect its linework even when you're actively painting on a different layer.

Question 2

Which Procreate export format preserves all layers and transparency?

Accepted Answer

Procreate native (.procreate)

Answer

The native .procreate format saves all layers, masks, groups, and blend modes intact for future editing.

Question 3

What does 'Alpha Lock' do to a layer?

Accepted Answer

Restricts painting to only the existing opaque pixels on that layer

Answer

Alpha Lock confines new brushstrokes to the pixels that already have content, protecting transparent areas.

Question 4

How is the 'Snapping' feature useful when using the Transform tool?

Accepted Answer

It aligns the selection to the canvas center, edges, or other layers

Answer

Snapping makes the Transform tool's selection snap to guide lines, canvas edges, and center points for precise placement.

Question 5

What is the role of 'Streamline' in brush settings?

Accepted Answer

Smooths out hand tremor by averaging the stroke path

Answer

Streamline reduces the effect of shaky hand movements, producing smoother, more controlled line strokes.
