Hi!
Is there something like Phimatrix in Krita or a plugin that does something similar?
With Phimatrix you can overlay and analyse composition by using various tools like Rule of Thirds, Golden Ratio, etc.
Thank you for any ideas!
Something related to this had been put forward as a Wishlist report:
For now, I think that all you can do is make your own ratio-templates, import them and scale/move them around your image.
There may be somebody here, with scripting/plugin skills who’d like to try to develop something suitable.
Thank you! Yes, would be cool if something like this would be integrated into Krita.
We used to have a golden ratio vector shape in the Krita 2.2 days, but that wasn’t really convenient, or well-implemented. All we now need is someone who wants to implement it as a guide. Since it’s canvas decoration (something painted on the canvas after the image has been painted) it needs to be done in C++, but it would be a relatively easy job.
As a workaround for now I suggest making a golden ratio svg and importing it in the vector library docker
Hm, that’s an interesting solution. Didn’t think that the vector library could be used like this but makes sense. Good advice, thank you!
Having someone make a library of vector shapes like raghukamath suggested would probably be easier than programming a new feature…
That is just a workaround. You can’t control its size etc. Having it as a guide is good at some point
In my WIP folder I have brushes for fibonacci and rule of thirds, to easily stamp them on images in any given colour, and then use the transform tool to tweak them!

Hey man, that’s awesome! Thank you so much for sharing!
I’ve just made a Vector Library file of golden ratio shapes by downloading a .eps vector image from:
(As just one example of what is available for free downloads.)
I used Inkscape to convert it to .svg then used krita to break it up and reassemble it in various ways then made a vector library. It’s not difficult but it’s not something you do for fun:
I have put a full credit and attribution statement in it, as required by the free download license:
However, I don’t think I’m allowed to distribute it.
If it’s used purely as a local and private tool to assist with creating other images, and not presented on the final image in any way, that should be alright but I don’t want to cause any problems by making it freely available.
Hey guys, the library with various ratios and rules already exists and was shared here: Vector Library Drawing Templates - and it has 9 compositions templates already (golden ratio, golden spiral, rule of thirds and some more).
If there is any missing, maybe you could contact @fullerhill - and either ask them to add new templates, or ask them for the license and make a new vector library with their and the new templates. (I would encourage either CC or CC-BY, but of course decision is on the creator).
I can’t remember noticing that very good collection (and vector library).
Maybe we need some kind of common/central register of resources.
Or have I not noticed that as well?
We try to maintain a curated list of resources on docs.krita.org. There is also share.krita.org, but since we cannot maintain that because of technical reasons, it’s just a huge spam trap.
I was aware of the first one and the second one is as you say.
I was thinking about the various very useful plugins that have been developed and shown on this forum as well as that link to the Vector Library Drawing Templates.
However, proper curation does take time and effort by someone who can spare it 
It’s quite a tough problem. GIMP failed with their plugin registry, too, for instance. We’d need something like Blender Cloud, but for Krita 
Thanks for sharing guys, it’s Gold! 
@AhabGreybeard @halla I have already submitted a MR to the Krita Manual Resource Page for this very specific vector library over a week ago: https://invent.kde.org/documentation/docs-krita-org/-/merge_requests/173/diffs because I noticed there is only some specific resources there, and I think it would be cool to have a place to share other types of resources too, so I added some that I found valuable as an example.
