If the tool can be used by clicking and dragging, a 'painting'
button will be available on the left, below the list of Magic
tools on the right side of the screen. If the tool can affect the

Magic Controls
If the tool can be used by clicking and dragging, a 'painting'
button will be available on the left, below the list of Magic
tools on the right side of the screen. If the tool can affect
the entire picture at once, an 'entire picture' button will be
available on the right.
⚙ Note: If the "nomagiccontrols" option is set, Tux Paint won't
display the painting or entire picture controls. See the
"Options" documentation.
💡 If the magic controls are disabled, the Magic plugin may make
separate tools available, one for painting and one that affects
the entire pictre.
Magic Sizing
Some tools offer different sizing options. If so, a slider will
appear at the bottom right side of the screen. This may affect
the radius of a special effect (e.g., Darken) or painted object
(e.g., Patterns), or other attributes (e.g., large versus small
Brick shapes).
⚙ Note: If the "nomagicsizes" option is set, Tux Paint won't
display the sizing controls. See the "Options" documentation.
💡 If the sizing option is disabled, the Magic plugin may simply
offer a default size (e.g., Patterns), or it may make separate
tools available with different pre-set sizes (e.g., Bricks and
Googly Eyes).
See the instructions for each Magic tool (in the 'magic-docs'
folder).
