Chapter 13: All About Rulers

One of the handiest tools in an artist's toolbox is the humble ruler. Whether it's a regular straight ruler, an set-square, or a set of French curves, rulers can really make a difference to your artwork.

Ruler tools in Clip Studio Paint work just like straight rulers or curved rulers in real life, except that they're digital—and they can be customized and made to produce certain special effects easily, such as all lines going to a specific focal point (or even curving to a specific focal point).

  • Understanding perspective rulers
  • Making rulers inactive
  • Drawing an ellipse in perspective
