To rename a canvas in Procreate using the method described in the reference, you tap the default name displayed at the top of the screen.
When you are setting up or creating a new canvas in Procreate, you'll often see a default name like "Untitled Canvas" displayed prominently at the top of the screen. The reference provided describes how to change this name at this stage before the canvas is fully created or saved with its initial name. This allows you to give your new canvas or canvas preset a meaningful name right from the start.
Step-by-Step Guide to Renaming
Follow these simple steps based on the provided reference:
- Tap the Name: Tap the words Untitled Canvas at the top of the screen where the current default or untitled name is displayed. This action will bring up your device's system keypad, ready for text input.
- Enter New Name: Using the keypad, type out a new name for your custom canvas preset or the canvas you are currently setting up. Choose a name that is clear and descriptive for your project.
- Commit the Change: Once you have finished typing the new name, tap Return on your system keypad to commit the change.
Your canvas or canvas preset will now be saved with the new name you entered.
Why Rename Your Canvas?
Renaming your canvas during the initial setup phase offers several benefits:
- Organization: Clearly named canvases are easier to find and manage later in your Procreate Gallery.
- Clarity: It helps you immediately identify the purpose or content of the canvas, saving time.
- Custom Presets: If you are creating or modifying a custom canvas preset, giving it a distinct name makes it easy to select for future projects.
By following these steps, you can ensure your digital artwork starts off with a well-organized title, directly leveraging the method described in the reference for changing the name displayed at the top during canvas creation.
