Procreate Basic 5 — Questions and Answers
Question 1: What does the 'Liquify' tool's Push mode do?
- Warps pixels in the direction you drag, like pushing wet paint (Correct answer)
- Pulls pixels toward the brush center to create a pucker effect
- Spreads pixels outward from the brush center
- Freezes pixels in place so they are unaffected by other Liquify strokes
Correct answer: Warps pixels in the direction you drag, like pushing wet paint
Push mode displaces pixels in the direction you drag, allowing you to subtly warp and reshape artwork.
Question 2: Which color profile is recommended when creating a canvas intended for digital screen display?
- CMYK
- sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (Correct answer)
- Adobe RGB (1998)
- P3 D65
Correct answer: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
sRGB is the standard color space for web and screen content, ensuring consistent color across most displays and browsers.
Question 3: How do you group multiple layers together in Procreate?
- Drag one layer on top of another
- Select them with right swipe on each, then tap Group
- Pinch selected layers together (Correct answer)
- Use the Wrench menu > Group Layers
Correct answer: Pinch selected layers together
Pinching selected layers together in the Layers panel combines them into a Group folder.
Question 4: What is the purpose of the 'Drawing Guide' grid option in Procreate?
- Automatically adds perspective lines to the canvas
- Displays a configurable grid overlay to help with proportions and alignment (Correct answer)
- Locks brush movement to horizontal or vertical lines only
- Generates graph-paper textures on the background layer
Correct answer: Displays a configurable grid overlay to help with proportions and alignment
The Drawing Guide overlays a customizable grid, isometric, 2D, or perspective guide to assist accurate drawing.
Question 5: What happens when you tap the small colored circle in the top-right corner of the Procreate canvas?
- It opens the Layers panel
- It opens the color picker (Correct answer)
- It activates the Eyedropper tool
- It toggles the soft brush mode
Correct answer: It opens the color picker
Tapping the active color swatch in the top-right opens Procreate's full color picker with Disc, Classic, Harmony, and Palettes views.
Question 6: What does 'Threshold' control when using ColorDrop to fill an area?
- How many layers the fill color affects simultaneously
- How far the fill color spreads into similar neighboring colors (Correct answer)
- The transparency level of the filled area
- The blending mode applied to the filled region
Correct answer: How far the fill color spreads into similar neighboring colors
Threshold determines how tolerant the fill is — a higher value lets it spread across a wider range of similar hues, while lower keeps it contained.

- A single brush saved with custom settings
- A named folder that organizes multiple brushes in the Brush Library (Correct answer)
- A saved combination of size and opacity settings
- A locked default set of brushes that cannot be modified
Correct answer: A named folder that organizes multiple brushes in the Brush Library
A Brush Set is a named folder within the Brush Library that groups related brushes together for easy access.
