Thanks, GG, makes me super happy to hear!
(+) mode is additive, of course, which has been fairly easy to implement, even while it does create weird things, if you use it on an empty canvas.
(-) mode would be like multiply, but in order to make this work with Verve, it would have to do something that might make even weirder effects:
...a little reminder: this is all openGL, which is fantastic overall, but creates certain complications that pure software treatment wouldn't.
- create a white image for the brush to use
- copy the current brush or brush image onto it
- multiply the result with the layer
Sounds pretty easy, too, but it creates a bunch of scary stuff that would be no problem on a filled canvas, but could go insane- or very weird- on empty patches.
I will try it again, because I really, really want that, too. Maybe my mind has evolved enough since I last tried it so that I can make it work better now?!

But, yes, I'm totally with you!

I keep messing around with the border conditions for the fluids. I've just uploaded a version with yet another approach to them. Feels like this might get pleasant now. It's a little tricky to change things around, thus it may need a little more attention, but well...

Thanks for your replies Taron.
Another suggestion : Hue Dancer is very cool, what about an additional dancing movement that would be radial this time, a sort of randomized Value Dancer ? It would be a separate button that could be controlled in amplitude like the other one, so that we could chose this effect only, or most probably, in combination with the Hue dance.

[Taron]

Uhm, that confuses me a little, because it currently is "radial" on the wheel around the center, you know. Do you mean radial around a different center?
In other words, dancing on hue AND saturation?

I have a different suggestion ( ), it's something else I was thinking about, but I need to make a whole interface for this:

Hue dancer at chosen amplitude (with auto saturation on/off)...
- changing per stroke
- constantly changing at a chosen rate
- constantly smooth blending at a chosen rate

By radial I meant along the radius of the color disk : the current dancer dances on a circle, the additional movement would be towards/away from the center (with a jitter amount controlable by a separate dial).

[Taron]

Ahahaha, words...
Yep, then I understood, you mean also a saturation variation as I mentioned above. Not sure, if that's something one would want, but why not?! It could be a fun engine.
I will put something together eventually. Sounds fun!

Yes, that's it, small random variations of saturation. Thanks. No urge

Hello Taron,
It's me again with other suggestions :

- Using brush #10 in the mouse mode, i noticed that one needs to mouse-click AND to move the mouse a bit in order that the brush prints on the canvas; is there a way that the print would begin at the mouse click without the need to move it ? that way brush #10 it would be also useable like a physical stamp (i.e. printing in the exact location where you click)

- Brush #8 is so cool, but will it be possible in some future to load brush #8 with our own "continuous patterns" so that we could go crazy ?

Thanks and regards,
GBoGBo

[Taron]

Yeah, brush #8 with images was actually my original plan...kind of because the whole thing was to make brush #8 and all "ribbon style" brushes act perfectly. I never even implemented my successful solution, hahaha. SO, yeah, it's part of the plan. Somebody else brought it up a short while ago, too... anyway, yes!

AH, yeah, I completely here you on the "precision" with not only brush#10, but all of them. I'm having to ponder over the ideal solution, because it's much more tricky than one might think. Needless to mention that shitty tablet library that really doesn't reliably get me mouse detection, which is something Lemi recently ran into, by the way, but it's an ancient issue of BlitzMax's Tablet mod, potentially a Wacom weakness, I don't know. Or- viable possibility- I'm an idiot, haha...never ever rule that out!

I'll have a few more looks at that!

Ok thanks for your attention.
