## Small Tablet Tips / Tricks
## Input Device Tips / Tricks

An important note: the settings dialog may be too big horizontally for a small android tablet screen. You can drag the top of the window to move it left/right/up/down to access the full window. This is especially important on Samsung Z Fold devices.
- [Drawing Tablet Quick Reference](Notes/Drawing%20Tablet%20Quick%20Reference.md)
- [Trackpad Quick Reference](Notes/Trackpad%20Quick%20Reference.md)

On a small tablet it can be wise to use the full screen canvas view and pop-up palette. This allows you to use the whole screen with your stylus and easily access different brushes and recently used colors. Note: the pop-up palette will show your favorite brushes by default and which brushes it shows, as well as how many to show, can be configured within the main Krita settings.

### Multi-touch / Gestures

## General

Setup according to desires and cross reference setup with Krita mouse canvas input settings as desired.

## Logitech T650 Tips / Tricks

Under Windows 10 the T650 gestures for scroll, etc may still be registered by Windows. In Krita: disable all mouse wheel configurations in the 'Canvas Input' settings area to avoid odd and inconsistent behaviors.
