Procreate limits the number of animation <strong>frames<\/strong> based on the resolution, but the default Square canvas (2048 x 2048 pixels) gives us 124 frames to work with, which is more than enough for a short animation. For something longer, you&#8217;d have to work at a lower resolution or in batches.<\/p>\n<p>Also, why can I only have 8 layers on <strong>procreate<\/strong>? Why Procreate limits the number of maximum layers <strong>Procreate<\/strong> limits the number of layers based on a few criteria: The amount of RAM in your particular iPad. The size of your canvas, and DPI (Dots Per Inch).<\/p>\n<p> Best answer for this question, what is the largest canvas size in procreate? The max canvas size is also the same (8192&#215;4096) but without the 8K limit. You can increase dimensions in the same MP limit. For example, a canvas of 16,384 x 2,048 pixels would work. There&#8217;s a max of 2 layers at maximum canvas size.Without getting into the technical nuts and bolts about what RAM (Random Access Memory) is, the bottom line here is the more is better. So, the higher the number the better (i.e. 4GB of RAM is better than 3GB).<\/p>\n<h2>How do I get more than 44 layers in procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h7jtQzAjITs\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why can I only have 4 layers on procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Procreate has layer limits because it needs to accommodate the amount of RAM available to it from the iPad. Procreate cannot allow for an infinite amount of layers while still functioning at the level required for the app to run well.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What size should I draw in Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using Procreate for your everyday digital art, then a good size to use is 500 PPI at 3.5\u2033 x 5.0\u2033. This canvas size will produce excellent results on mobile devices and Facebook when used with the iOS Digital Art App.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How big can a Procreate file be?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s find out. 32gb iPads will have enough storage for the typical Procreate artist who does not store a lot of additional files on their device. Those who plan to store a large amount of photos and videos on their iPads in addition to a large gallery of Procreate art may want to consider the higher capacity options.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How many pixels should I use in Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>A higher DPI\/PPI = a denser number of pixels per inch resulting in a cleaner, less pixelated image. 300 PPI\/DPI is the industry standard for best print quality. Depending on the printed size of your piece and the viewing distance, a lower DPI\/PPI willl look acceptably good. I would reccomend no lower than 125 DPI\/PPI.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is 32 GB iPad enough for Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If your main reason for getting an iPad is to use for Procreate, 32GB of storage would be enough. Because it&#8217;s not as fast as the more expensive models, you might notice a slight lag when writing with the Apple Pencil.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How much RAM does Procreate use?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>We always recommend iPad Pro, because of the higher RAM, and Apple Pencil. Exactly which storage size depends on you, but we&#8217;d generally say a 64GB as a minimum, and more if you intend to store a lot on the device.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Which iPad should I buy for Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Apple iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) \u2014 The best iPad for Procreate overall (Editor&#8217;s Choice)<\/li>\n<li>Apple iPad (9th Gen) \u2014 The best budget iPad for Procreate.<\/li>\n<li>Apple iPad Pro (11-inch, 2021) \u2014 The best value iPad for Procreate.<\/li>\n<li>Apple iPad Air (4th gen) \u2014 The best portable iPad for Procreate.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How many layers can procreate handle?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Procreate may also see a new maximum resolution, expanding to 16,384 x 8,192px with 3 layers. Other canvas resolutions will see increases of: 2,048 x 2,048px from 196 to 246 layers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is the most popular painting size?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>A 20-by-24-inch frame is the most widely used, followed by a 16-by-20-inch frame and a 11-by-14-inch frame. It is typically recommended to hang artwork 24&#8243; x 36&#8243; or 30&#8243; x 40&#8243; in posh galleries, exhibition areas, and auditoriums.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drag the Hold duration slider to your desired number of frames, up to a maximum of 120.
