I found it difficult to get started with Krita because it doesn't automatically pan when you try to draw beyond the edge of the current view when using a drawing tablet. I wrote about it on https://krita-artists.org/t/how-can-you-have-automatic-panni... a couple of months ago and now filed an issue at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=475481 after observing the same behavior in 5.2
Any chance of seeing this feature request in future releases?
For everyone who has a hard time with the keyboard shortcuts I recommend https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiP7pXnwu6g which covers basic navigation in 1 minute.
