Is it possible to draw in pixel?

#

I want to paint like a square, but idk how

#

as now I need to use rectangles to cover things up

#

Iโ€™m not sure if new ways have been spun up but the last time I needed to do this I:

made a grid of 100 frames
filled the frames

It was pretty hacky but it worked. You can then frame your frames and export if you wanted a little pixel art thing ๐Ÿ™‚

@earnest wind do you also know how to download the file?

#

made this atm but can't download

earnest wind
#

Make sure the frame is selected and then use the export controls in the right panel (they're towards the bottom).

I get this bruh

#

but I want to have them all in a picture

earnest wind
#

Can you link the file? I can jump in and see

If I understand correctly, I made this

#

So the background image you can swap out (it's an image fill on the frame) and then I have these smaller frames called "pixels" that you can fill to create an extra image.

#

Check out the layers panel ๐Ÿ™‚

#

I see

#

is it also possible to make the frames smaller?

#

like less pixels in 1 frame?

earnest wind
#

Sure! I just made them that size as an example

#

Worth noting that the larger the image and the smaller the "pixel" the more intense the file gets re: performance.

#

gthis is 10x10, can I also do 1x1?

wanton fractal
#

Look I have this now

#

but I want a green 'bar' over it

#

and I want on the side above, that the green line laps over the grey line, and underneath I want the grey line to lap the green one

#

so I want to 'erase' but I can't do that in pixel..

#

and pixel is like tight, and the drawing function isn't

#

get me?

#

Look now I need to use frames in order to erase stuff

#

#

Oof performance is really taking a hit, I made a copy of that first example with 1x1 pixels.

#

If pixel art is specifically what you're after I'd check out Asperite over Figma. If it's just masking certain elements you might have an easier time with SVG's or vectors, rather than a static shape like that.

#

yeye, ill find that out somewhere else. But how can I download this file @earnest wind

#

how can I export this

earnest wind
#

make sure the top level "Moneyloop design" is selected

#

Then use the export feature I showed you earlier. Exporting as a PNG should give you a single file

#

doesn't work
