Types:
There's several types in Krita. You can select a type of assistant via the tool options docker.
Ellipse
An assistant for drawing ellipses and circles.
This assistant consists of three points: the first two are the axis of the ellipse, and the last one is to determine it's width.
Concentric Ellipse
The same an an ellipse, but allows for making ellipses that are concentric to each other.
If you press shiftwhile holding the first two handles, they will snap to perfectly horizontal or vertical lines. Press Shiftwhile holding
the third handle, and it'll snap to a perfect circle.
Perspective
This ruler takes four points and creates a perspective grid.
This grid can be used with the 'perspective' sensor, which can influence brushes.
If you press shiftwhile holding any of the corner handles, they'll snap to one of the other corner handles, in sets.
Ruler
There are three assistants in this group:
Ruler
Helps create a straight line between two points.
Infinite Ruler
Extrapolates a straight line beyond the two visible points on the canvas.
Parallel Ruler
This ruler allows you to draw a line parallel to the line between the two points anywhere on the canvas.
If you press shiftwhile holding the first two handles, they will snap to perfectly horizontal or vertical lines.

Spline
This assistant allows you to position and adjust four points to create a cubic bezier curve. You can then draw along the curve, snapping
your brush stroke directly to the curve line. Perfect curves every time!
If you press shiftwhile holding the first two handles, they will snap to perfectly horizontal or vertical lines. Press shiftwhile holding
the third or fourth handle, they will snap relative to the handle they are attached to.
Vanishing Point
This assistant allows you to create a vanishing point, typically used for a horizon line. A preview line is drawn and all your snapped lines
are drawn to this line.
It is one point, with four helper points to align it to previously created perspective lines.
They are made and manipulated with the Ruler Assistant Tool.
If you press shiftwhile holding the center handle, they will snap to perfectly horizontal or vertical lines depending on the position of
where it previously was.

Orthographic
Orthographic is a mode where you try to look at something from the left or the front. Typically, you try to keep everything in exact
scale with each other, unlike perspective deformation.
The key assistant you want to use here is the Parallel Ruler. You can set these up horizontally or vertically, so you always have access
to a Grid.
Axonometric
All of these are set up using three Parallel Rulers.

Dimetric
Trimetric
Oblique
Isometric
Isometric perspective has technically all three rulers set up at 120 from each other. Except when it's game isometric, then it's a
type of dimetric projection where the diagonal values are a 116.565 from the main.
Linear Perspective
1 Point Perspective
A 1 point perspective is set up using 1 vanishing point, and two crossing perpendicular parallel rulers.
2 Point Perspective
A 2 point perspective is set up using 2 vanishing point and 1 vertical parallel ruler.
3 Point Perspective
A 3 point perspective is set up using 3 vanishing point rulers.
