Your active layer is the one you have selected in your layer’s panel that you’re currently drawing on. This automatically fills a shape with color instead of having to color it in manually with your Apple Pencil.Īctive layer? Drag and drop? Closed shapes? Let’s go over that. In Procreate, ColorDrop is the feature that lets you drag and drop colors into any closed shapes on your active layers. These two features go together like peanut butter and jelly, so if I start talking about reference layers without explaining ColorDrop first, we’ll end up with a sad sandwich. This will activate ColorDrop but, because you’re using a reference layer, the color will be confined to your linework.īefore we can talk about reference layers, we need to understand ColorDrop. On this new layer, drag and drop colors into your linework. Create a new layer above your reference layer. To use Procreate’s reference layers, open your layer’s panel and choose the “Reference” setting for your linework layer. What if you could add color to your line work while keeping the color on a separate layer? Well, with Procreate’s reference layers, you can do that! This gives you a lot more flexibility to experiment with colors without compromising your linework layer.
