@PsychotropicDog Alright. Then I did understand that you were using the camera. So the advice is. Don’t zoom the canvas while using the camera layer. Or else the picture will become antialiased like that. You HAVE to zoom only while the bitmap layer is selected.
The camera does give you the absolute resolution size at it’s default zoom. But again, using the zoom function ON the camera layer zooms the CAMERA, zooming on any drawing layer, zooms the VIEW. They are different procedures.
Take these steps for absolute clarity:
- Start the program
- Start a New File / Or load a previous File
- Select the Camera Layer and Double click on it to change the image size (which is what the camera sees and what you can export) to 64 x 64
- If you already moved the camera press CTRL + H to reset the CAMERA zoom to it’s default state (you are supposed to still have the camera layer selected)
- Select the bitmap layer you want to draw with.
- ZOOM IN with either scroll wheel or by pressing CTRL + UP / DOWN ARROW to get a discrete zoom %
This way your VIEW will zoom and you’ll be able to properly see the pixels.
For your tools you have to turn off the antialiasing. For the screenshot I sent I used the Pen tool with 1px size and no antialiasing. The eraser as well.
If this doesn’t explain properly let me know and I’ll make a video guide when I have some free time. But hopefully this can help you out.
