A nice filter, but unfortunately isn't a substitute for on-canvas editing/shape making. Having to apply to change shape/fuzzy of brush is a bit cumbersome. Turn this into a tool for working on canvas, with full access to the undo/redo history stack, and it would be great. :) It still would not re

Another note: use Shift+alt+s if you are on Ubuntu Linux - Apparently Ctrl+Alt+s is taken by the window manager to hide the window (slow disapproving head shake). -C On Mon, Aug 28, 2017 at 5:15 PM, C R wrote: > No problem. happy GIMPing. :) > -C > > On Mon, Aug 28, 2017 at 5:14 PM, Paul Naudé

This should not deter GIMP developers from adding a proper shape drawing feature. I highly recommend bribing Shlomi Fish to do it if you have the dosh. :) On Mon, Aug 28, 2017 at 5:05 PM, C R wrote: > One correction: should be "select-stroke-last-values" not > "vector-stroke-last-values", obviou

If you are really REALLY lazy, and don't care that much about the quality of the stroke, then do this: In GIMP: 1. Go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts 2. Type "stroke" in the search bar 3. Change the shortcut for vectors-stroke-last-values from "disabled" to "Ctrl+Alt+s" Now anytime you have a select

You can use the paths tool (hotkey b) to draw a shape, then do a "stroke path". You can also make a circular or rectangular selection and drag a colour into it to fill the selection to make a solid shape. That said, if you find you are doing this a lot, I recommend Inkscape, as it's not only easy
