My daughter got a tablet for her last-day-of-elementary-school celebrations. A pressure sensitive pen and #krita are now her best friends!

@e8johan Ok so I have a ton of suggestions!
The right click menu is accessible through a setting so you get the pallet, quick choice of colours AND "only paper" view.
@Krita is my personal go to but the port to android need some settings tweaked at times since android tablets sometimes lack the genius right click menu

(Also again @halla ping because Krita and your work took me to FOSS, one of the weirdest and most amazing trips I've ever gone to and you need more applause)

@ohyran @Krita @halla what's your preferred android config? Is there a nice way to get access to the right click menu, or how does it work?

@ohyran @e8johan @krita We still want to recreate the dedicated tablet gui we had for Krita 4, but it'll take until the port to Qt6 before we can get started on that.

@e8johan@social.linux.pizza I'm happy for her! May I know what tablet is that exactly? Looks like a really good size and being able to use Krita on a tablet without a PC sounds great.

@e8johan While krita might be the best drawing application on Android the best drawing application on tablet is on the Ipad with procreate. I don't draw but I seen procreate before and there is a reason why its one of the best selling apps on the ipad.
