Paintbrush 1.1 Freeware Bitmap Graphics Program
Paintbrush is not intended to replace Photoshop or other high-end image editors. Instead, it aims to fill the need for a basic, streamlined editor for those times when you just feel the need to doodle.
New in version 1.1:
- Fill tool completely rewritten, resulting in a significant speed gain
- Limited undo stack to 10 undos (reducing chance for memory overflow)
- SUBMITTED: Grid overlay now available
- Zooming image will not cause funny scrolling to occur
- By default, images created by Paintbrush will open in Paintbrush in the Finder
- Bomb tool animation can be immediately completed by pressing ESC
- Preliminary support for Shift key in Selection tool
- Text insertion uses front color, automatically opens font panel
- Color accuracy has been improved (now using calibrated instead of device colors)
- Added button to switch foreground and background colors
- Toolbox shortcut key changed to better represent functionality
Fixed in 1.1:
- REQUESTED: No longer uses wrong size when opening certain JPEGs
- REQUESTED: Second click on either color well hides panel, avoiding confusion
- Pastes in correct bottom-left corner when zoomed
- Changing colors during bomb animation will not change the color being used
- Undo no longer makes duplicates of image clippings when used with Selection tool
- Paste no longer occasionally places image in Toolbox instead of the document window
- Scrollbars in correct location after zoom, opening large images
System requirements:
Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
Note: this application has not yet been fully tested on OS X 10.5. Full support will be added upon Leopard's release in October. Use at your own risk.
