What works the same as Photoshop

  • Layers with masks, clipping masks and groups, plus layer effects like shadows and strokes.
  • Selection tools: rectangle, ellipse, lasso and magic wand.
  • Brush, eraser, paint bucket, gradient and pen tools.
  • Keyboard shortcuts like the ones in Photoshop.
  • Opens PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, AVIF, HEIC and RAW photos, and exports JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, TIFF and PDF.

What is missing

  • Opening and saving Photoshop PSD files is planned, not done yet.
  • 16-bit colour is planned, not done yet.
  • Changing the size of the image or the canvas is planned, not done yet.
