Fabriquez des couronnes dans Procreate 4 - Un cours de Procreate for Lunch™

Hi Caroll - good to see you in a class again! I love your wreath and you've done a great job drawing it. Thank you for posting your project and congratulations for being the first to post. Now, as to your questions - when you draw the curve you need to draw it and, when you reach the end, keep your finger (or pencil) on the screen (don't lift it off) and wait. In a second or two, Procreate will recognise that you've created the arc and the prompt will appear at the top of the screen. It's best to try this by drawing with your finger first of all as you can maintain the pressure - sometimes the pencil (if you have one), will skip and you'll lose control. Now, if this still doesn't seem to work, you can test your preferences. Tap the spanner icon and choose Prefs and then Gesture Controls. Tap QuickShape and make sure that Draw and Hold is enabled and you might need to reduce the delay a bit to make it all happen faster. Of course - you should always make sure you're using the most recent copy of Procreate so check the App Store to make sure there aren't updates you need to install. I don't believe there is any difference in Procreate running on the iPad and iPad Pro except for the fact that not all iPads are compatible with the Apple Pencil. So that's most likely not the issue.  You didn't find the eyedropper tool because there isn't one. If you want to sample a color just press and hold on an area with that color in it and a ring of color will appear showing the color you are sampling. Is there a method to make 5 petals flowers? - hmm.. no, probably not, because there isn't the ability to rotate around 360/5 degrees. However, since you are an Illustrator and Photoshop whiz you can make a 5 petal flower image in either application, open it in Procreate and make a brush from it to use! Now I appreciate I've covered a lot here, please let me know how you go? If these suggestions don't solve your issues, I'll try to help another way. <img src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/parentClasses/e8bad9906ca9b3f903cdbf8dfcac2ae7/ca7259a2" class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" alt="ca7259a2" /> <img src="https://static.skillshare.com/uploads/parentClasses/e8bad9906ca9b3f903cdbf8dfcac2ae7/9b2abfa4" class="zoomable rounded-image-wrapper" alt="9b2abfa4" />

Thank you, Helen, for your quick answer.
I set my gesture preferences as you explained and it works perfectly :-)
And for sampling colors also.

I'm really glad that you teach classes for Procreate, with you everything becomes clear.

I am so glad you are enjoying these Caroll. It makes a bit of a change of pace for me and I'm enjoying working in Procreate too.

Thank you, Helen, for this fantastic class.
I just begin with Procreate and I enjoyed very much your explanations.
I like very much the dots and the grungy effects :-)
When I draw the wreath, I have not the mention "arc created and I cant modify it. I have a simple ipad and not an ipad Pro, perhaps it is the reason.
Please could you help me ?&nbsp; I didn't found the eyedropper tool, I think it's hidden somewhere ...
Is it a method to make 5 petals flowers ?
Here is my first try :
