Tilt Panel

Tilt affects the movement of wet paint and represents a circle with a pointer, which you can move and rotate. Close & reopen the Tilt panel from the Window menu or by tapping Ctrl + L (on Windows) / Cmd + L (on macOS).

Turn Tilt on and off by clicking on the middle circle. Set the direction and angle of a canvas tilt by clicking on the pointer. The longer the tilt line, the greater is the angle. You can enable or disable the tilt also by hitting Alt + T shortcut.

Note

The speed of the color runoff depends on the tilt of the canvas, amount of water and color on the painting.

Tilt Panel Menu:

  • Lock tilt to canvas - Lock the tilt to keep its direction when rotating the canvas.

  • Use accelerometer - Use the tablet's accelerometer and influence the canvas tilt and color run by the tablet inclination. When the accelerometer is used, the color of the tilt center and the pointer changes to yellow. You can set accelerometer sensitivity in Preferences > Tools.

  • Center accelerometer - Center accelerometer to set a zero degree.

  • Rotate 90 degrees - Rotate the tilt in Rebelle by 90 degrees. Use this option in case Rebelle tilts the canvas incorrectly. This may happen on some types of tablets with opposite tilt direction.

  • Close - Close Tilt panel. You can re-open the panel from the Window menu.
