Show layer changes

If on, the layer blinks slightly when selected (activated).

Rendering settings section

1

Low Latency Mode

(Settings: Disabled, Active, Fastest)

Infinite Painter in version 7.1 supports the Low Latency Drawing technology by Google. This technology allows for real-time brush strokes, however the results depend on the hardware support too. You may wish to test which option works best for your device.

2

Color mode

Set the color profile for the on-screen color proofing. This option affects only the working preview, not the actual colors of your artwork. Learn more in On-screen color proofing.

Leave “Standard” if you are not sure what “on-screen color proofing” really means.

The color profile can be set also in the Color settings panel and in Rendering panel.

3

Gamma correction

Turn on to improve mixing of non-opaque colors. Learn more in Gamma correction.

4

Deep color (64 bit)

Infinite Painter, by default, uses 64-bit color model (16 bit-per-channel color depth). This ensures smoother color gradients and color mixing. This however may not work on certain devices, so you can turn it off here. If in doubt, leave this on. Learn more in 64-bit color depth.

Save changes prompt

Turn on if you prefer to be asked whether to save changes on exit (when you close the current project). If off, Infinite Painter saves changes automatically on exit. Learn more in Saving projects.

2

History

Set the number of version historyProject version historyProject version history is a safety feature in Infinite Painter that stores a preset number of previous versions of the project. Each time the project is saved, the app does not overwrite the previous version, but keeps both. In case of a technical problem during saving or of a creative error, previous versions may be accessed and restored.Learn more states to be stored in your project. Default setting is 6 last saves, maximum is “Unlimited” (to store all project history states). Select a lower number (1 – 10) to save storage space or turn the option off if you don't want to record your project's history at all.

Warning:

if you set this slider to lower values and then open an old project which had more history states than the set number, on the next save of this project part of its version history may be erased. Learn about project history in Project version history — overview.

Timelapse

Activate, if you want to document your workflow in a form of a time-lapse video. (See Timelapse recording).

2

Video quality

Set the video frame size: from 720p to 4K.

Note that the video quality (resolution) cannot be changed after creating the project.

Higher settings of the video quality may produce significant amounts of data. Control the amount of free storage on your device, especially while working on large projects that take long time to finish.

Disable Back

Disable the system Back button (either a hardware button or the on-screen one) to prevent accidental triggers.


Stylus settings section

This section shows up only when the application detects that you are using a pressure-sensitive stylus (you have to make at least one brush stroke with the stylus for the app to recognize its presence). Capacitive (”rubber”, ”universal”) styluses utilize the regular touchscreen and are considered fingers, so this section will remain hidden if your stylus uses this technology.

Finger

You can set a separate function for finger if you are using a pressure-sensitive stylus. Learn more about using a stylus in Using a stylus.

2

Stylus front button

Set a function for the primary side-button of your stylus.

3

Stylus back button

Set a function to the secondary button, if your stylus has one.

Note that secondary buttons in styluses may send non-standard codes and be incorrectly recognized by the application.


Brush settings

1

Draw cursor

Displays the brush head contour while painting.

2

Shape detection

Controls the automatic prediction of geometric shapes. Learn more in Shape detection.

3

Global dynamics controls

Leave the defaults if your stylus works just fine.

Learn more about dynamic brush controls in Brush Editor — curve graph controls.

Tap on a label to disable given dynamic input for all brushes.

This may be useful if you are using a non-standard stylus that has untamable characteristics, or if your device generates incorrect values for simulated finger pressure. Otherwise leave all three controls active.

Note that the Velocity dynamic control applies to finger-painting and capacitive styluses too. Turning it off may greatly limit the expression of the brushes.

4

Global dynamics curves

Allow for precise calibration of your stylus.

Calibrate your stylus' pressure, velocity and tilt characteristics. These settings affect all brushes in the application. Tap on a graph to edit the curve. Learn more in Brush Editor — curve graph controls.

icon/curve_linear

If you accidentally edit the curve in one of the graphs and wish to reset the graph, tap on the leftmost preset button (linear).
