{{Disambig|canon games' [[Draw Mode]]}}


'''Draw Mode''' is the main creative mode in [[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter (Wii)]], consisting of many different tools and features like the rest of the series. Draw Mode automatically activates every time the player goes to edit or draw an object next to a Canvas, and create or edit the [[Hero]] at the start. Character creation also features 30 pre-made character templates - two of which are exclusive to the [[Raposa Sports]] mode, and three unlocked via an unknown cheat.

As this game was released on the Wii, rather than utilizing proper drawing controls like the [[Drawn to Life|canon]] [[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter|games]] and [[Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition]], Draw Mode utilizes the Wiimote's pointer to determine where the cursor will draw on the screen. This was a point of criticism between critics and fans alike, as these controls made it harder to properly create something. [[Planet Moon Studios]] attempted to rectify this, however, with additional drawing features within both the mode itself and the stage gameplay via [[Action Drawing]].

=={{Icon|Palette}} Main Mode==
[[File:DTLWiiToolbox.png|150px|right]]
The player can use a variety of different tools and palettes comprising of 18 colors for their creations. These include an adjustable brush, a standard paint bucket tool, an eraser (which is also affected by the size of the pen), an undo and redo button, a stamp tool, a resize meter, and a shape forming tool. When creating a [[Hero]], the player is also able to utilize grid-based drawing by zooming in all the way, paste templates and move the placement of limbs.

Despite being limited to 18 colors, the player may unlock 8 more color palettes by finding them within levels and buying them from [[Isaac's Shop]].

== {{IconSVG|Trivia}} Trivia ==
* Unlike the [[Drawn to Life|first game]], the colors on the drawing are not directly affected by switching the palette.
** The player can also still use the color chosen from the previous palette until they change it.
* This is the only Draw Mode in the entire [[Drawn to Life Series]] to have a shape-forming tool.
** This Draw Mode also has no Clear All button, instead an Erase Area button.
* There is no tutorial on adding templates, moving limbs or undoing/redoing a change.
* The Wiimote pointer's sensitivity for this Draw Mode is able to be altered to fit the player's ability; however, they can only access it through the pause menu, as there is no option to adjust it manually within Draw Mode itself.
