Pros

“It's great tool for quick skechers and full illustrations with an extension brush library, built-in time lapse feature and file management system.”

Yogesh M.

Game Artist

“The different brushes allow you to create alot of textures as well as the ability to create your own brushes.”

Alize B.

Artist

“Many of its tools (such as selection, color fill, and brush smoothing) work much better than expensive PC programs.”

Void D.

Pros

“Mostly I used it for scientific manuscript and grant applications and other graphic design. ”

Matthew F.

Professor

“I was able to get the whole job done in one weekend and it would have taken my weeks to complete in Illustrator, but I probably would have given up first. ”

Cons

“My least favorite thing about the program is the way pixels are obliterated by rotating and moving.”

Jakkie G.

Freelancer

“I find the learning curve sometimes a little steep, especially with layers and masks. If I don't use the programme again in a while sometimes I will forget how to do some things. ”

Amber L.

People Reporting and Communications Officer

“This can be hard when moving onto industry standard software and having no clue because procreate never had them.”

Razaanah C.

Artist

Cons

“It is difficult to figure out how to set custom page sizes and magnify/reduce the image to fit the printed page.”

Matthew F.

Professor

“The hardest feature is editing filter editing”

“Minor complaints - (1) page setup (sizing, magnification, etc) could be more user friendly/explicit, (2) the latest version of Canvas X Draw (version 7) keeps asking me for my license key, (3) the Auto Trace function is cumbersome and often doesn't allow me to make editable objects from raster images, (4) the latest version of Canvas X Draw (version 7) does not open some previous "Canvas" formats, (5) conversion from AutoDesk (CAD) formats is quirky.”
