Why? This request occurred to me after watching online digital painting tutorials from a couple of different sources. In them, the artist chooses a particular color as their background (typically white) and, rather than erasing their mistakes, simply switches to the background color and paints over with it. I have seen several comments on these videos (replicated across the sources) to the effect that this swapping to background color rather than using the eraser is a neat trick - mainly because it simplifies the workflow.
See for example: http://www.davidrevoy.com/article172/chaosevolution-digital-painting-1h30-open-tutorial at 1:55 where he says: "To erase, I don't use the eraser. It's slow to switch tools. I prefer [to] use the color picker and pick white color on the background. To draw again, I pick grey" _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
