Description
Here is the first tutorial in a set of Paint Tool SAI tutorials that I am making. I thought that a settings tutorial would be the best to post first, as I will refer to this tutorial in future tutorials.I hope I explained everything well. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
WOW! Thank you so much for the daily deviation!!! It is quite an honor! Thank you!!!

Help? My whole entire program now speaks in a different language I don't understand, and it isn't Spanish or French. Can someone just link me to an image of the Paint Tool Sai settings in the top left corner?

Any suggestions for this problem:Β my tablet works for about 5 seconds in SAI, then whenever I go to a different program (like Preview, as I'm drawing something from a photo reference) and go back to sai it doesn't recognize the pen AT ALL, pressure or otherwise.

I recently stumbled upon this, and thank God I did, because this is super helpful. I am still a noob and this will definitely give me more knowledge about SAI.
