Hello!
Me and my childen (age 2,4,7) are using Krita to draw. We have a Huion tablet with pen, which connected via usb. Everything is good.
Because the children are not so experienced with the pen, they click sometimes on the wrong spot, and changing the user interface. Sometimes the color menu is disappeared, sometimes the Windows window is minimized, because they click and move the status bar.
My Feature request would be, to have a menu option, to freeze the Krita window in maximized mode, and freeze all the element (like color bar) inside the window so even if she click somewere nothing moves.
My children like the Krita very much, the buttons on the Huion tablet are connected to certain functions (like brush, select, eraser, hand, undo), so they can use the software well. Unfortunately they make mistake (like resize the window) and they running to me crying that they made something bad.
Please help!
Thank you in andvance!
There is the focus view you get when pressing ‘tab’. There you only have the canvas and the popup palette. Maybe that is what you can use while waiting for the feature request to get voted for. Or you bind workspaces onto a key - combo so that your children can always go back to their workspace of chioce ?
Your suggestion helps me a lot.
I managed to put a shortcut to Settings/“Canvas input settings”/ “Show popup widget” function, so I can call the palette by pressing a button on the huion. This can help us temporarly.
Here are some thoughts:
-in Krita toggle view->full screen mode (set a hotkey)
-set the Windows taskbar to auto-hide (right click taskbar->settings->“Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode”)
-increase auto-save frequency
scripts:
-set toolbars to be non-movable
-hide/disable the menu
-hide/disable specific actions: quit, settings, toolbar config, etc
A hotkey would be able to toggle such things on and off.
plugin/script
-a big/obvious button that ensures all relevant stuff is “reset” (but not the document)
plugins:
-disable docker resizing (see the script)
-hide docker titlebar
These two plugins will hide the titlebars and lock resizing by default, there is a constant at the start of each file that can be set to False. I’ve not got mine set as hotkeys, i have a button on a toolbar. You could do that and then hide that partiular toolbar.
