Also, I only use SAI Version 2, so that's what this thread is about. PLEASE include any of those if you know of them and impact your art. Some examples are the parallel lines and concentric ellipse ruler, and many many options for layers. However, there are features that don't show up in menus or panels, but need to be assigned a keyboard shortcut. I didn't include things that were easily found in keyboard shortcuts. no more trying to move the contents of a folder an inch to the left and having to make every single layer visible! (it does NOT mean you can draw on invis layers tho, so youre still safe!) if you go into other (top of the screen) > options > preferences, you can make it so transformations apply to invisible layers. The instinctive left Click & Drag is less precise.

Right click + Drag on a slider to make smaller changes in values. A lt + Shift + to select the layers above and below that you're working on (can keep hitting to select multiple) Alt + to change the layer youre drawing on to the one above or below the current layer Ctrl & to move a layer up or down a level (in the layers panel) Ctrl & Alt & Click on a layer to remove that layer's pixels from the selection!!! (same note as last time) (also it makes the selection border / 'marching ants' look weird but the functionality is fine) Ctrl + Shift + Click on a layer to add the active pixels from that layer to your current selection!!! (note: it just selects the space the pixels in that layer occupy, i didnt know how to word it tho)

Ctrl & Click on the ARROW (only works if u click the arrow that opens or closes the folder) on a folder to select all pixels in that folder (a godsend that saved my AP portfolio) (cancels existing selections) Ctrl & Click on a layer (only works if you click on the layer thumbnail) to select all pixels on that layer (cancels existing selection) Just making a thread for all of the features sai 2 has that aren't obvious but are really helpful! Feel free to add your own, but here's mine:
