Minor 3.3 Feature Suggestions
on: December 10, 2021, 09:42:49 AM
I'm really loving how the app is developing! I do have some minor suggestions may help improve some workflows.

1) Is it possible to have a double tap feature on the Bucket Drop tool icon that toggles between bucket fill and lasso fill?
2) Is it possible to put the "Aspect Ratio" and "From Center" settings in the Rectangular and Elliptical Marquee tool settings into the Paint and Eraser tool settings when using the Rectangle and Ellipse drawing modes?

1. Tool icon double tap performs kind of "Reset" action (Deselect, reset canvas rotation, zoom to fit), so toggle tool mode is not the good idea

2. To keep Aspect Ration in Rectangle/Ellipse drawing mode just touch the screen with second finger. From Center is not available indeed...

I’m aware of the second finger touch to make a 1:1 aspect ratio, I was wondering if the ability to set the aspect ratios could be added as well.

Is there any shortcuts currently (or in the future) that would allow switching between the bucket fill and the lasso fill without always going into the tool settings?

You can save Lasso and Non-lasso presets in favorites.

May l suggest a ‘long press’ at tool icon like for eraser to get and set current brush size?

I really like this idea, some settings are very annoying to switch. You can make this as the default ‘gesture’ for every tool to switch some main settings without opening actual settings. E.g. switching on and off symmetry for the brush; switching on and off lasso mode for a bucket; switching eraser size to brush size and back for eraser tool; sampling all layers/current layer for eyedropper and smudge tool etc.

Thanks! I didn’t realize that before.

I also like the idea for long pressing the bucket icon as well.

You can use erase blending on the brush to get eraser with current brush/size. Thats much more convenient instead of using eraser. Personally I use eraser tool quite rarely.

Is it still possible to get the "From Center" setting for the Rectangle and Ellipse drawing modes?

We don't want to over complicate drawing modes...

Can’t there be a “From Center” setting in Preferences>Tools? The only reason I ask is because the only way currently to design accurate, concentric ellipses and rectangles is to use either the Rectangular or Elliptical Marquee tool, then Select>Border…, then fill in the selection. It’s quite tedious and another downside of this method is that you can’t get the unique brush shapes and outlines that you get when using the rectangle or ellipse drawing mode.
