FEATURE IDEAS:
|
|
--------------
|
|
* Allow naming (titling) of images when saving. (As an option)
|
|
(Thanks to Jerry W. Todd for the idea.)
|
|
|
|
* "Cartoonify" magic tool. Kind of like posterize, but different?
|
|
|
|
* Create symbolic link "~/TuxPaintPictures" that points to
|
|
"~/.tuxpaint/saved/"???
|
|
FREQUENTLY REQUESTED
|
|
|
|
* Add "click to start, click to end" functionality in Brush, Eraser, etc.
|
|
(Pablo Saratxaga's suggestion; 2003.07.19)
|
|
FREQUENTLY REQUESTED
|
|
|
|
* Show shape instructions after _temporarily_ describing the shape???
|
|
(Herman Bruyninckx's suggestion; 2002.08.25)
|
|
|
|
* Special command-line options that enable groups of other options
|
|
all at once. (e.g., "--fullscreen --noquit --printdelay=60 --grab")
|
|
...and/or pre-written configuration files.
|
|
|
|
That way a parent/guardian/teacher can very easily set up Tux Paint for
|
|
certain age groups, for example.
|
|
|
|
* Allow compile-time option (or system config?) that disables
|
|
parsing of ~/.tuxpaintrc and/or command-line options.
|
|
|
|
* Show only one category of stamps at a time?
|
|
(Provide category selection dialog) !?!?!?
|
|
FREQUENTLY REQUESTED
|
|
|
|
* Show configuration options (e.g., from ~/.tuxpaintrc) in --version info.
|
|
|
|
|
|
POSSIBLE FEATURE IDEAS:
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
* Pipette / color prober tool. Click on it, then click on image to pick
|
|
up a color from a single pixel. Display color under mouse pointer in
|
|
special 'custom color' color bucket (see below) when moving pointer.
|
|
Click and drag a rectangle to select a color which is the arithmetic
|
|
average of the colors in the selected area.
|
|
|
|
* Palette. Click on the left-most (or right-most) color bucket (which
|
|
must look a bit different than the rest) to pop up a palette
|
|
(just a rectangular image containing lots of colors in some sort
|
|
of pattern) above it. Click on the palette to select a color. The
|
|
palette disappears (on button *release*). Can probably reuse
|
|
pipette tool code to pick up color (but don't support the 'average'
|
|
method here). The palette should just be an ordinary image file,
|
|
and easy to replace. I recommend using the one of the left here:
|
|
http://www.ficml.org/jemimap/style/color/wheel.html It's very easy
|
|
to select both hues *and* brightness from this colour wheel.
|
|
|
|
* Round eraser
|
|
FREQUENTLY REQUESTED
|
|
|
|
* Support animated brushes (then replace Sparkle magic with one) ??
|
|
|
|
* Support image/stamp 'hoses' (as implemented in numerous other
|
|
graphics programs).
|
|
|
|
* Make a 'rainbow' color (then remove Rainbow magic tool)
|
|
|
|
* "Gallery"/slideshow mode (available via Open dialog, maybe?)
