These pieces are fantastic!

I've got some Fantastic news for all the artists who who work in photoshop that have the tablet, as Layer Paint looks like it's THE Photoshop app for the Note. This is because each file gets auto saved as a PSD file, layers and all. I was able to sync the data folder of mnt/sdcard/layerpaint into a custom folder inside of dropbox via an app called the "directory bind", and then auto sync that folder with dropbox via the app dropsync.

(You need to be rooted to use directory bind)

What this also allowed me to do was not just be able to open up ANY drawing I did in Layer Paint inside of Photoshop on my computer, but to open up any PSD file that I saved to the dropbox folder I assigned to auto sync with my tablet (via Dropsync). This is due to the dropbox folder acting as the folder where all the data for Layerpaint is stored rather than the area in mnt/sdcard/

The only big downside (which I emailed the developer about) is that you cannot give custom names to the files you create in LayerPaint. I find this to be extremely puzzling. The second downside is that any PSD file that was not originally made in Layer Paint won't have the thumbnail for it when you go to "open" inside of Layer Paint, and instead shows a red X. This is remedied after you save the file from within LayerPaint, however is pretty annoying if you were to try and open up PSD files you made on your PC on the tablet. A fast and simple fix to this would be for the developer to allow you to browse by file name, and a more techy solution would be for any PSD file within the folder to be recognized and converted to a thumbnail regardless of whether it would be made in Layer Paint of not.

There are also some small things, like palm rejection only seems to work well when you disable any finger recognition in the app (except for the top menu). I could be wrong about this so please let me know your experiences. Also, if the interface could give you a choice of having some common shortcuts to eraser, the brush of your choice, and color selection on the left side, that could be a great way to keep drawing while switching the controls with your left thumb, and not wasting time to adjust settings below.

Sigh. I wish i had artistic skill. I would be having so much fun with this tablet. Alas, instead of giving me artistic skill God made me incredibly good looking.

My albatross :)

P.S. you guys do have amazing skill. Gorgeous work there. I have a hard time just choosing colors for my website.

Any artist Apps work with Voice Recognition?

VoRec could speed up using awkward UIs, Seems like the GN10.1 has the power to handle VoRec and the S Pen concurrently.

I, too, had an issue with selecting color for my web sites, then I did a web search on:

"color preferences"

Lots of good info!

Aloha.. Al :cool:

I just tried the GN10.1 at Best Buy. I really liked it. Though not immediate, I think response was fast enough for me. I'm curious to see how Jelly Bean will be on this. Pen accuracy was spot on, and palm rejection didn't skip a beat for me. This was a WAY better experience than the original Note on Gingerbread I tried earlier. The only app I tested for art was Photoshop Touch, and I found it quite serviceable (I also used S-Note briefly for notes, and it worked well enough for me).

I have a couple gripes:

Resolution: I wish it was higher. Maybe there was something I was doing wrong, but when I zoomed in, my drawings became pixelated very quickly.

PS Touch orientation. I could not for the life of me get it to flip to Portrait. Anyone encounter this problem? Or is everyone just using a different app (like Layer Paint, SBP, etc)?

I'm not a pro, but love drawing. My current setup at home is Photoshop on my Win7 machine using an old Intuos tablet. The GN10.1 may not be as powerful as that, but I came away quite impressed. Part of me wants to wait for Win8 tablets to see what they have to offer, and I feel $500 is a bit much. But, after trying it myself and seeing the awesome sketches in this thread, I'm really thinking of pulling the trigger.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Magnesus:
I've just tested TVPaint on my N10.1. What is the most impressive is that it seems to work as fast as I remember it did on a PC (it was a few years ago but still!).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] toenail_flicker:
Same problem here - can't draw or paint - OTOH I am stunningly good looking AND clever with numbers. ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] TheWerewolf:
My two cents...

Drawing on the Note was the major reason for it. Note taking was a close second.

Normally I use a Samsung Series 7 Slate for artwork but since I carry my tablet with me everywhere, I liked the idea of it being a sketchbook too. Sausage pens on the other tablets just didn't cut it.

I'm of mixed feelings about the Note. It's responsive and the pen definitely has pressure sensitivity - but it doesn't feel like there's 1024 levels - it feels more like 32. TBH, my gut says 'this is because it's still too new and not enough of the big hitters support it well enough yet' so I'm ok with waiting.

My usual app in Windows is SketchBook Pro - the express version for Android doesn't seem to respond to pressure and I can't find any settings to turn that on. I should probably just buy the full version.

Still here's a quick sketch I did (the second one with the tablet ever) which might give you some sense of what it can do...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] banderos101:
One thing i like about the tab is the ability to have a split screen picture while drawing said picture, nice touch

Heres my novice attempt, gallery on the left, snote on the right

Edit

Sorry for the amateur hour folks :)

This short video is a combination of basic s-noting , samsungs native movie maker app, ringdroid's music editing ability, and third party app , which for the life of me i cant remember the name right now, which i used to intergrate video to music, something the native movie app doesnt do very well in regards to the music quality

Proof of concept, im sure with other apps professional artists could do some surprising stuff, if any were so inclined too that is, although ive already seen some impressive pics here hope we get to se3 some more

[youtube]X3mq_U7jdos[/youtube]

Edit 2

And just for good meaure, mucking around with photoshop, mostly predifined speacial fx options

Hope the pics are'nt to big
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] madsquabbles:
i love that feature too, but i wish we could use it with custom programs. i've started using layer paint and really digging it!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Magnesus:
Have you tried Layer Paint? In it the stylus works just like my graphic tablet (which has 512 pressure levels if I remember correctly).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mitchellvii:
Can someone help me? I cant get the 174th level of pressure to work on my s-pen. Piece of junk!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] jedah:
So, I just bought the tablet yesterday. So far, I'm liking it.

There is one small quirk that I haven't seen mentioned yet: If I shade one part of a drawing. Then, I try to draw or shade very close to that area (like within a fraction of a millimeter), the pen does not seem to register. In PS Touch, it pretty much won't draw anything (as if I'm drawing outside a selected area). In Sketchbook Mobile, it sometimes draws something, but seriously lags. The only other software I tried was TV Paint beta, and it didn't seem to have this problem at all. Anyone else run into this? Is there perhaps a setting in PS Touch and/or SBM that I should check off? I haven't tried Layer Paint yet, so I don't know if it also has this issue.

Also, in SBM, it says the most recent updated added pressure sensitivity support. But, I can't find anything in the app to that seems to show this option. I did not notice any sort of pressure sensitivity when I was drawing with this app. Is it only limited to certain brushes or pencils maybe?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] zoomincn:
I bought the tablet 3days ago so far I like it. I used sketchbook pro to draw this portrait, it took me about 30 minutes. The only thing I don't like is there isn't a "pen-only" mode, I often got unwanted marks on the work caused by my palm touching the screen. If "pen-only" mode could be implemented on an OS level then it would be flawless. I know Quill and S Note have built-in this function and it's very practical.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] madsquabbles:
layer paint has this you can disable all single touches except for stylus. it's a great inexpensive program!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] zoomincn:
I own it, yet when you do a single touch and pen input immediately after it, it would form a straight line connecting the two points of contact. Plus it lacks shortcuts functions such as hold to pop eyedropper tool, quick shortcut to adjust brush opacity and size etc. I hope it could be implemented in future updates... The brush engine is quite impressive though, it produces smooth lines fast.

-----update -------

oh my mistake, I didn't check the disable single touch.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
great posts in this thread!

i find photoshop touch is pretty much so bad and so laggy compared to the other applications i have that it's unusable for drawing. like UNbelievable. I wonder if it's putting people off the tablet because when I draw a circle at even a pretty slow speed it draws a SQUARE or even a triangle with the airbrush tool at a tiny width. absurd! unless I am missing some key setting somewhere? the pen tool is also jaggy and smooths terribly even with edge aware on.

haven't tried sketchbook as i heard/saw that the line width doesn't start from 0 px and therefore looks a bit 'blotty' at the start? i also saw that people had trouble drawing circles in it, etc.

layerpaint runs smoothly like TV Paint and doesn't have those problems, but it has far less functions than TVP. but it's still great for sketching with the ink pen etc. the interface is really shonky though.

one annoying thing I noticed today is that the s pen nib opening is JUST a fraction too small to take normal wacom nibs, so I guess I'll be sanding down nibs in future since I have like a million normal tips, hehe. other than that, the more I play with the tablet the more I like it. definitely happy about the price I paid to have a truly portable slate. battery life is really excellent. I run it on power saving mode all the time (except when testing stuff) and it doesn't seem to change anything with the drawing apps i use.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] jedah:
Thanks, fish. I agree.. I don't think PS Touch is gonna make the cut for me. I was really looking forward to being able to sync between PS Touch and PS on my desktop. Perhaps as someone else mentioned, I'll try Layer Paint instead. I also hate that I can't seem to turn the stupid thing to portrait. So, I have to draw in portrait and twist my neck to see the controls </rant>

TV Paint definitely seems powerful. As you said, I think they essentially slapped the desktop version onto the desktop. That said, it's not the most intuitive. I'm gonna have to hunt down the manual when I get the chance. Do you know if there's a full screen mode for this app? I couldn't figure it out for the life of me.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
no probs! just give up on PS touch and save yourself a world of pain, haha. I gave it another shot while I was replying earlier and almost threw my pen against the wall.

the manual is here: http://www.tvpaint.com/v2/content/article/downloads/manual.php

it is lengthy but very comprehensive. I didn't check for a fullscreen mode, not sure there's one... I use mode 2 (the tiny squares saying 1 2 3 4 bottom right of the app) -- the pop out sidebars (swipe or hover from left/right) are very handy for minimising screen space. i also made a custom tool bar for undo/redo, eyedropper and undo rotate (i don't do it as much by accident now). you can easily clone a tool to a new toolbar by holding on the empty space in the desired toolbar. let me know if you do find the fullscreen mode!

another test scribble using lots of the tvpaint brushes!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Magnesus:
TVPaint is great but MyPaint would be perfect. Sigh. I hope we will get Ubuntu some day... To developers good at it - I'm willing to pay a lot for making a usable dual-booting Ubuntu with MyPaint and Wacom drivers!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mi7chy:
Nice work. I would gladly hang that in my house.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Kreed:
I love the functionality of ps touch but like most of you I find its not ready for primetime. Hopefully it can be updated to function with the pen better as layerpaint and papyrus and quill do, those three programs are so far the best and most responsive with the note for me.

Tv paint is there too but that interface really needs work for android, amazing how well it works though!

I'm surprised by how unresponsive sketchbook pro is, hoping that gets updated for the note as well.

Really enjoying seeing what people are drawing with the note... Heres a couple of layerpaint sketches.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] madsquabbles:
sad thing is that since it's adobe, most like any updates that include new features will require you to buy pstouch2. every fricken version of cs breaks something that they don't fix until the next version, and then break something else that they don't until the next version...

i we were early adopters of indesign 1 and there was a bad bug in which imported greyscale images were tagged as being a "spot" grey. this was never fixed until version 1.5, which you had to pay for:rolleyes:

right now ps13 (cs6) has broken pdf image editing. if you use the object selection tool in acrobat and select edit image in photoshop then save back to the pdf you lose your clipping mask and rotation. i don't have faith that they'll fix it in the current version of ps. i've tried with combos of ps 12 and acrobats version 8 and up.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] crystalstylez:
Man I love the way tvpaint runs on this tablet, but boy does it suck battery juice like no other.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] jedah:
I just thought I'd add that I just tried LayerPaint. Very responsive to pressure. Indeed, it does not have the glitch I mentioned earlier. So, at the moment, I think I will be switching off between LayerPaint and TV Paint (as soon as I go through the manual and figure out how to use it).

I'm also one of the few early adopters of Skydrive (25GB!), and they just announced the app for Android. It's not too bad for non-early adopters as it still provides 7GB I think. I think this will become my virtual HD for my artwork now, while Dropbox will be for documents and the like.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
that's interesting, I haven't really noticed it sucking more battery life than other stuff I'm running. I do have my tablet on power save when I'm out though. How much does it eat up for you?

hey, thank you! :) you're very welcome to do whatever you like with the image.

Incidentally, I cut and filed a wacom felt nib down to the S Pen size (it took about 5 minutes, but I'm not responsible for you ruining your pen if you get filing crud in it) and I find that it removed the 'clickiness' of the original nibs. I found the original nib a bit too 'loose', and this seems to have fixed it... I find that's made it quite a bit more responsive now. Of course, the only problem is that the felt nibs wear down like crazy :p I'm sure this would work for any of the standard Wacom nibs too.

another thing that I like; I can use the Kno textbook app to sketch over reference pdfs (but no pressure), not sure if you can save it out but you can always screenshot it. Also S Note does it with pressure sens but takes much longer to load in pdfs.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] crystalstylez:
I think it sucked like 15 percent from the 10 minutes I was playing with it. I do not have power saving on. I did notice the tab getting rather warm from ithe cpu usage during this time also. This is the only program that has done this. I bet if I check cpu spy net time it would be running full force.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
???? Wow, that's really strange, I have been using it since almost the first day I got the note, up to a couple hours at a time straight sometimes, and haven't noticed any crazy battery drain from it even with power saving off. In fact I was impressed by the battery life. Maybe some weird setting somewhere? I haven't noticed my tablet getting warm either.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Alabama978:
Guys, please help me out as a new Sketchbook Pro user. Despite reading the thread and looking in Preferences I can't find out how to set the pressure levels?

When I click on the "i" icon at top of the main screen it goes to the Menu with NEWS HELP PREFS ABOUT

Clicking on Prefs shows

GENERAL

BRUSHES

CORNER SHORTCUTS

FACTORY DEFAULTS

Can't see any setting to turn on pressure sensitivity.

I am running Version 2.2.2 on a 8010 with JB UK.

Any help greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] sphere314:
Many default pens and brushes in Sketchbook Pro have a minimal or zero pressure sensitivity.

To have a pen/brush with a higher pressure sensitivity you should access the menu for editing the pen/brush properties (see attached image).

To do so you must tap on the pen icon and then tap on the icon with the 3 cursors, placed in the left half, at the right top, just below the pen/brush preview.

The Max and Min values are related to the pen pressure. To have a pen/brush with high pressure sensitivity you must give a very high value to the Max value and a small value to the Min value.

I hope I was clear enough...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Alabama978:
Thanks

Many thanks for taking the time to explain it perfectly.

I am just starting to use this app and have not done any digital drawing before, so it's all a bit of a steep learning curve at the moment!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Rezz:
I'm loving the crap out of my note, I bought it to quickly sketch out ideas while on my way to work, or do some late night sketching in bed, but it's proving to be a much more powerfull tool then just a fancy sketchbook, especially sketchbook pro is one beast of a mobile app.

I recently finished this, wich is about 40% Note and 60% photoshop CS6, but I can see myself doing some simpler illustrations using just the note.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ckavvouras:
Very nice work man. I know how you feel I love my note, just wish sketch book supported more layers and a higher resolution the hardware can finally handle it imo
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Kikoshi:
The new update allows a higher resolution, but fewer layers, just gotta deal with the lesser layers tho :/
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
Ergh l accidentally double posted sorry. Rezz that's awesome, what does your website say? Can't read it
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ckavvouras:
Lol iam talking about the new version 2.5.2 lol, actually 6 layers for me is more than enough
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] spiralpen:
That is so amazing really shows what the note can do!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ExploreMN:
My first drawing...my baby girl loves bunnies. LOL Think I should go pro with this talent?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Kikoshi:
Question too the peeps rooted JB US stock using layerpaint. Have you guys gotten a major lag issues when using the app? Finger or stylus? I can see a heck of a lag when drawing, unlike in icecream sandwich. If people are experiencing this oinds of lags, please alert the developers since ive emailed them and I seem to be the only one that has this problems. They mention if its a stylus issue then is due to the size of the canvas, thoigh in ICS, this wasn't an issue, and all the brushes ran great. :( so does anyone have this issues?:confused:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] jedah:
Layerpaint is working fine for me. I'm rooted running stock JB. But, SKP is now my daily driver, so I haven't used Layerpaint nearly as much as I used to.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] :
I like layer paint but IMO sketchbook pro is a better choice now that you can do different canvas sizes. Layer paint doesn't support all the nifty features SBP does like multiply layers and such
