[Gimp-developer] vector layers blogged...
hey guys, I have blogged about the work a group of students did on vector layers for GIMP under my guidance: http://www.mmiworks.net/eng/publications/2009/07/teaching-interaction-09.html teaser quotes: In our design project, there was plainly not enough functionality to be useful/usable. So before the interaction designing started, each team sat down to brainstorm and then decide on their essential set of functionality. As we will see next, functionality like vector layer management, managing and combining shapes and working with simple shapes (rectangle, ellipse, etc.) was integrated. enjoy, --ps founder + principal interaction architect man + machine interface works http://mmiworks.net/blog : on interaction architecture ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

We would not seriously consider such a level of reduction because it's bad for usability -- it's much more painful for the user to adjust a slider each time they want to paint with different hardness, than to just switch between two brushes. I don't see why that necessarily must be the case. This is where you can have savable brush presets. Furthermore, why can't there be a more interactive means of adjusting hardness (and brush size for that matter)? GIMP already had the capability to use keyboard shortcuts to interactively adjust brush size. Why couldn't shortcuts to added to quickly adjust hardness? -Jason ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

I can see how this could actually save time then, if you only ever use Eraser with one or two different fixed brushes instead of switching a lot. for what it's worth, I only ever (pretty much) use a single global brush, shared with as many tools as possible... I don't have a graphics tablet... I bind 2 and 3 to shrink/grow the (vector) brush, and @ and # (shift-2 and shift-3 on my keyboard) to have them grow and shrink more, and $ and % to have them get softer and harder. For most of what I do, I only need the one brush (sometimes I change its shape though). Probably if I had a graphics tablet I'd feel different. When I've wanted to do more natural art, the brushes in gimp were all much too tiny to be of any use really -- 50 to 300 pixels in diameter is a useful range for bitmap brushes I think, for making new art that can be printed, e.g. A4/US Letter at 300dpi.
