How tobring popup palette in android krita?

Hello. Since android isno longer tied to mouse and keyboard, can somebody tell me how to get pop up palette? I keep getting that pop up palette on my android randomly and can’t figure out how it comes when I have nomouse or keyboard…the click on my stylus isn’t the way, how do I pull it up?

Also, is there a list of android krita shortcuts?

Press and Hold on canvas. Press and hold is equivalent to mouse right-click, so that should bring up pop up palette. If it doesn’t work try disabling touch painting.

There isn’t much difference between Android and Desktop shortcuts. So far Android specific shortcuts/gestures haven’t been created so it’s the same.

Thank you for reply. I tried the press and hold, but it doesn’t work.
U am not sure how I managed to get the pop up palette, there must be some shortcut, press and hold didn’t give it to me, it just selected colours

I don’t get the popup palette on long press with the stylus either. Krita 4.4.2 on Samsung Tab S6 Lite. Touch painting is disabled under Settings >Configure > General > Tools.

Under the Canvas Input section (also in Configure) I see a Pop up Palette section. It’s currently showing a shortcut for using a mouse button. I couldn’t find a way to tweak that to get something that works.

Farther down there is an S-Pen section, which is the stylus I have, but I’m not sure how to use that section either. The comment mentions it’s for the Note or S6, so maybe the Lite isn’t supported.

I have the same question … Galaxy tab s7 … how to get the popup pallette?

Pressing and holding on the canvas doesn’t work regardless of the Touch Painting setting, and the pallette has appeared a few times, but I don’t know how I got it.

Anybody?

Thanks mucho lots :blush:

ps - so very sorry for posting in the wrong section … I’m new to this site, and haven’t quite figured out the navigation yet :wink: Is there a way to change this post’s category?

Hi, I just tested on my Tab S7 with krita 4.4.2 (touch painting on) and it didn’t bring up popup palette (I don’t remember how either :smiley:)

But since I usually turn off touch painting (for palm rejection), I can bring it up with my finger long press.

I also turn off touch rotation for not getting rotation when zooming (rotate with poput palette), maybe these can help you a bit :slightly_smiling_face:

It work for me so i think that is a solution :slight_smile:

I have mine set also but it’s tricky. You’d have to disable to SPen actions if you don’t want that popping up too when trying to activate the pop-up palette.
Many times when tapping on the side button with the tip in contact with the canvas, the canvas moves but I have to keep trying and it eventually works as I want (popup pallette shows and I can choose the brush or color I want)
