If you’re an artist who likes to work really close, (like me), do yourself a favor and put up two views. You can do this by clicking View–> New on your toolbar.

There’s nothing worse than finally zooming out and realizing what you were doing was very wrong. This saved me a lot of grief tbh. I’m sure everyone knows this already but ._.;; I arrived quite late to that party.

WHAT

That’s amazing..

Does this work for Photoshop?

For Photoshop you’ll wanna go to Window > Arrange > New Window for [Document]. 

BRINGING THIS BACK BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HELPFUL THIS HAS BEEN. This will save you hours and hours of backtracking (fixing a thing close up, zooming back out and realizing that the thing you fixed doesn’t work with the rest of the picture–rinse and repeat). As someone who uses the ‘squint and see if it looks right’ method of drawing anatomy, the tiny window is a goddamned life saver.

for my artsy followers

HOLY CARP!!!

@krita-foundation is there a way to do this in Krita, this would be really useful

Yes.

First settings->configure Krita->general->window->multiple document mode set to subwindow.

then, open a doc, window->new view-><doc name>

then window->tile

Here’s an example: https://docs.krita.org/Making_an_Azalea_with_the_transformation_masks

Very useful tip. Thank you!

It’d be great if Krita’s overview docker can be as fast & high-quality as a document view. It’s much move intuitive to use that instead. Easier to call out and manage too.
