feacrow,

@davidrevoy is that not kind of the same thing as the colorize mask tool?

davidrevoy,
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org avatar

@feacrow Yes. It solves the same type of task in the workflow, but in a very different way and interface. This way ( fill tool + gap closing ) is a bit more familiar coming from other software.

@davidrevoy and does “Spread” expand the fill beneath the lines (if that makes sense)?

davidrevoy,

@tangocharlie Not automatically. Krita still has the "grow" option, where you can set how many pixels of auto-spreads outside the fill boundaries.

Another screen video capture test of Gap Closing in Krita, this time showing the Grow option.

@davidrevoy ohhhhh cool. Thank you for taking the time to post a video!
I have this downloaded but have not made time to get up to speed. I might have to make that a priority.

If you want to expand color fills perfectly under the lines, using colorize masks works better than the fill tool

@redj @tangocharlie True, I made a video about the colorize mask https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQdx6H9BIGs , this feature is for sure (as said by Redj − hello! 😉 ) a bit better at finding a middle ground under the thickness of the line-art. But it's also fully aliased by default, so an icing on the cake after a flat aliased coloring using the Colorize Mask is always a GMIC filter (in Krita) of antialiasing, or a Gaussian blur filter of 1px. In case of transparent line-art (or penciled) it works really well.

Hi David 😊
Personally I like that the flat colors are aliased: I only use my flat colors layer as a selection source, to quickly select each color zone (so I can paint effects on another layer), so having aliased flat colors mean cleaner selections. And since the lines on top cover 99% of the artwork, it's never really visible in the end

litt17,

@davidrevoy wow that is a good feature. I hope it pushed to main repo of my distro. sorry if my question is too basic but do you have suggestion when to use fill tool with close gap and colorize mask?

davidrevoy,
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org avatar

@litt17 Hey, it's in Krita master, so the nightly build (and for your distro, it will be on the next major release of Krita, probably Krita 5.3, but before that you might see more 'point' release fix of 5.2.x).

This Close Gap feature replaces probably the usage of Colorize mask: both feature tries to solve the same type of workflow for color flatting artworks.

@davidrevoy Cool feature, though "close gap" sounds like the opposite of what the setting does?

davidrevoy,
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org avatar

@soc Hey, first part of the demo video I posted shows the 0px (so no effect), the name is a bit standard in the industry for this type of feature. Later in the demo, I show how at 15px it closes gaps on my drawing (the drawing is high resolution and zoomed back).

soc,
@soc@chaos.social avatar

@davidrevoy Yes, understood that, no worries!
I really just found the name unintuitive.

@davidrevoy Oh wow!

This is such a familiar issue :flan_laugh: :photoshop:

@davidrevoy wow, that’s so awesome! This is the feature I always needed but never knew that it could be possible!

@davidrevoy so its the lazystroke/gmic fill but with a single point instead of multiplle?

davidrevoy,
@davidrevoy@framapiaf.org avatar

@icedquinn It's (afaik) a new method, quicker, and detailed here in the WIP thread: https://krita-artists.org/t/close-gap-in-fill-tool/32043
