Mental Canvas Draw 4+

There is potential - but it could be done better

Feedback to the developers: The idea behind this app is awesome and it's fun to work with - but in some places I find it rather awkward to use:
- The painting tools are not good. The exception is the pencil, the rest is terrible (no use of the pressure, lack of a smooth line function, changing the size cumbersome, no change in opacity possible, marker would be desirable)
- When switching from the eraser back to the brush, the small tool window with the drawing tools is opened every time - very annoying.
- Why can I only move layers if I have selected the content beforehand?
- The extra window when rotating and moving urgently needs a way to switch the camera to orthographic projection.
- I would like to be able to move layers in camera mode (on X, Y and Z) and rotate them (at least in 45 ° steps).
But my biggest criticism is the palm rejection. Compared to other drawing apps, it works very unreliably. The undo function is often triggered when the palm of the hand is placed on the screen.
Please don't get it wrong: I think the app is really great, but it could be so much better.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the feedback. As a small company with limited resources, we've prioritized developing novel functionality and inking capabilities that aren't available elsewhere. That said, we appreciate your comments and will take them into account for future updates. The issue regarding the toggle between eraser/brushes has been fixed and will be updated in the next release. Please feel free to reach out to us at support@mentalcanvas.com to discuss all of this in more depth.

App gut, aber

Ich habe die App zum ersten Mal genutzt und auch wirklich viel Spaß dabei gehabt, jedoch ist das einzige Problem, dass mir die App abgestürzt ist und somit Stundenlange Arbeit komplett weg ist. ;( Also Tipp an alle die das lesen: Speichert so viel es geht :(.

Geht so

Zum malen eignet die App sich nur für Rough Sketches. Die Brush Engine ist leider nicht so gelungen. Der beste Weg mit der App zu agieren ist, in dem man Bilder in anderen Apps malt und dann als Layer importiert. So kann man die App mehr als interaktiven Videoeditor betrachten. Weil Bilder zu malen wie in der Demo war mir nicht möglich, weil die Brushes eben nicht den Standard entsprechen den ich durch andere Apps gewöhnt bin. Updates gab es auch seit 2 Jahren nicht mehr, daher bekommt man den Eindruck, dass die App wohl nicht mehr weiterentwickelt.
