                            MANIPULATING THE CANVAS

                  In Krita, the canvas is the digital workspace where you create and manipulate your artwork. It
                  represents the area where you can draw, paint, or edit images, much like a physical canvas for
                  traditional painting. The canvas is the blank digital space where you apply your brushes, tools,
                  and colours.

                  The following table shows the different ways to manipulate canvas:
