You will hear my honest opinion on their strength/weaknesses, when and how I personally use them, and most importantly: is there a clear winner for architects and interior designers?

This was just the info that I was needing! I can see that I'll end up using both just as you have. Morpholio will be a very helpful tool in floor plan concepts and construction administration, love that it can be to scale...but when it comes to renderings for clients and Design Review Boards I can see that I'll need the better brushes and the opacity/transparency/blending of Procreate. Thank you for this!

Hi, I’m playing around with both apps but I find Trace more useful as a architectural designer. But the issue I have is pixelated lines in some of my projects, would love some help from you in fixing this. Am I inserting the PDF’s wrong, it’s it the sheet sizes… would appreciate some feedback. Manny thanks in advance 😊

Do you know if trace morpholio accept the new function of hovering with Apple Pencil in the new iPad m2 chip?

7 месяцев назад

I'm trying to use both applications. Used Trace for a year and Procreate for a few months. In my opinion, the limits of Trace lie in the impossibility of importing files in multilevel psd format or alternatively adapting the imported image to the table. By creating the different floors of a building on a fixed format and maintaining the position, you then have to scale and align manually to have a collimation that will never be precise. There is no direct relationship between stencil and scale of representation, we always resort to tricks that generate approximation. The quality of the very thin lines is very poor indeed. The flaw of Procreate lies in the scarcity of manuals, you have to dedicate a lot of time to self-instruct yourself through intuitions and attempts and in the impossibility of scaling (a defect that can be circumvented with some tricks). For the rest it seems to me that Procreate is more precise and with better graphic quality. The absence of stencils is overcome by the creation of customized brushes with some shortcomings in understanding how to align brush size and representation scale.

@HenryGao Месяц назад

Yep, those are some of the shortcomings that the Morpholio Trace team is currently working on. You will be excited to see many new features this 2024 Fall.

@NirreFirre 4 месяца назад

A year later, it seems Morpholio Trace has added most, if not all of your missing features. HSL color, basic pencil/pen customization and the normal blending modes (that I use, but I am an engineer so it met not be enough for designers) etc. Good to see the developer continue to support the tool. $20 per year is cheap in my book. Coming from Adobe's pricing..

@HenryGao Месяц назад

$20 is cheap in my book as well, especially compared to other industry software (Adobe, Autodesk, Bluebeam, etc)

@HenryGao Год назад

There’s good and bad to each app, nothing is perfect.

@cekuhnen Год назад

@@HenryGao That is very true - Concepts can to paint like a pixel app. That is really the down side. For exploring design variations however, it beats them.

@izoyt Год назад

i think better long term review would be concepts vs trace, if we talk architecture/landscape and interier design. procreate is more general drawing app.

@chitpaul Год назад

How about Concepts or SketchUp as they are far easier to draw to scale with. I use SketchUp for a fast line drawing layout then send to Morpholio trace. I like the pen thicknesses and scaling in MT a great option. The fact you can import a drawing and scale it.. so elevation drawings in trace are faster. Morpholio Trace for me.

@HenryGao Месяц назад

Concept is a viable alternative for non-ios users. Personally, Procreate and Morpholio meet 100% of my needs so there's little reason for me to look else where.

@davinrsmith Год назад

Hello Henry! First of all, congrats for your channel, you've won a suscriber! I do love the passion and professionalism you have. I'm an architect and I was looking for a tablet. Finally, I've dicided to buy an iPad Pro. The question is the size....11' or 12.9'? Which size is better for my work as an architect? Thanks in advance!

@HenryGao Год назад

They both are a great fit. It comes down to personal preference. I have 12.9 as it gives me more real estate to draw and illustrate.

@charliesaigon Год назад

I love Morpholio Trace. But have not been able to find a way to save my brush settings for re-use as saved or favorites. This is a deal breaker for me. Please tell me there is a way.

@HenryGao Год назад

You are right, there isn’t! Procreate has this ability.

@AhmedElewa-io7jq Год назад

Very informative! Thanks!! By the way, does morpholio trace has a layer number's limitation due to the Ipad's RAM like procreate or not? (for older Ipad models like Ipad 9th Gen and so)

I’m not sure, but it’s not limited as much by the memory compared to procreate

@bethanymettam3779 Год назад

Great review! For its Vector Layers, *Clip Studio Paint* might be worth looking at, especially as any line or paint stroke can become a vector path. Also, its feature to erase past intersecting vector lines can be a good way to clean up drawings. In addition, it has perspective grids, watercolor & airbrushes, some of the same things as in Procreate, but all with a lot of features unique to the app. It is made for the iPad Pro, Mac and Windows, as well as Android. Now, *Morpholio Trace* (and especially its Scaling Ruler) is _utterly_ unique!

@mauriciovalenzuela4081 2 года назад

Thanks for the video! I love procreate. One thing that I identified before is that Morpholio resolution it´s not as good as procreate drawing. It feels pixelated, and the other thing is the brushes, how open procreate is, and that ability to add new brushes is perfect.

@HenryGao 2 года назад

Try updating to the latest app because I don't experience this problem myself. The pixelation could be solved by creating a a trace layer zoomed in to your drawing, not for the entire paper size.
