Just to be clear - the reason I am proposing the enhancement request is a new way of using a feature which has already been coded (ie giving the paintbrush eraser functionality). The purpose is primarily to have a better workflow, but also to have more meaningful treatment of "background color" for pictures which have multiple layers (and an alpha channel).
I have reposted the sample picture here: http://brendanlearnstosee.wordpress.com/2013/07/26/ecorche-dorsal/ The xcf has been renamed with a .jpg extension otherwise it wouldn't upload. By way of example in relation to the paint-with-background-color trick: "*also a friend of mine commented that using white to erase was a good trick, but in Wesnoth it's actually really bad considering all portraits are on a transparent layer..." (From Wesnoth art forums: http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=38935 There are other examples floating around the web.) Wesnoth portrait art would be an example where this enhancement could be used. _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
