Working from presets
The first thing you will notice once you open the New canvas menu is a list of canvas presets. They are included in Procreate by default and can be quite convenient when used properly. In this section, we will look at each preset, what they’re most suited for, and how to edit/delete them. Note that the exact presets you have available might differ based on your device.
Preset – Screen_Size
The very first option available is Screen_Size. Depending on the model of your iPad, it will create a canvas that has the same size and resolution as your screen. This preset is not editable.
The specifics of this preset are as follows (3rd generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro):
- Dimensions: The same as the screen (2732 x 2048 px)
- Dots per Inch (DPI): 132
- Color profile: Display P3
- Layers available: 91
- Video settings: 1080p (H.264):
