This is about the only drawback to some more dedicated applications, that allow to draw with FG on left and BG on right mouse clicks. > - due to rounding, I assume, you have to click several times > until the current pixel gets black. Yes, if you use the brush tool, and don't align the brush to the grid. But for this task, you'd use a 1 pixel brush (that's most non-animated brushes if you set the size to 1), the pencil tool, and pure black and white as described above. > - If you use greyscale, soft pencil settings may lead to > unpredictable (fuzzy) results. If you paint with gray, then you will get a gray pixel (assuming you're still using the tool as described earlier). But you're painting with black and white. > Next time, I'll have a try for greenfish [1].

So far, I don't see much you can't do with GIMP, so I'm not sure what you'd want to file it for. -- Regards, Michael _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: [email protected] List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
