Follow-up Comment #5, bug #18617 (project mypaint):
I think what we need is a brush "state". Whenever you pickup a brush, it
should remember its last state in terms of every possible settings excluding
color. If the user wants the default settings (the one that gets loaded now
every time you switch back to a brush), there should be a shortcut to do so. I
think most of my dead time I spend while painting is re sizing brushes when I
switch back to them.
And yes, there should be a way to determine approximately how big a stroke
really is, as the circle doesn't do that and it's frustrating.
Typical scenario:
I pickup the Airbrush tool (from Ramon's set), give it a stroke and notice
that its way bigger than the circle shows (second problem I've mentioned).
Then after I re-size it to what I want, I do some painting with it and notice
that I need to correct some small detail somewhere. So I pick up another
brush, correct the detail, then click on Airbrush again. Now it is as big as
it was the first time, so I have to resize it again. Quite painful.
So keeping each brush's state until an explicit reset to default action is
done by the user is the way to go in my opinion.
