Yep, yep, I bet you are serious!
Well, it's a big field to ponder over, augmented reality, but what were you thinking of in that regard?
Normally this deals with devices capable of integrating virtual elements into a real life scenario, analyzing what a camera sees, for example. I'm just not sure what you mean.

sorry & thanks *
I think I'm not choice as accurate and appropriate title.
My suggestion is to use an intelligent assistant.
An intelligent assistant can help the artist to see/guess/select things before painting.
for calculate, display, suggest and do something more than be there in canvas.
Such as
- auto paint completion
- display various Invisible information from states to useful data such as heat maps, vector matrix or other.
- displaying a preview of the next proposed splats can be selected or not.
- sketch based painting (process/render)
- image based shader
...
For a big example, a mirror painting is a kind of the same idea.
Because we're actually just painted on one side, but both sides use/make the results.
I think it is not a bad idea : )
This idea can be extended very well and probably better than you can see it applied....
rotoscopy : !و البته ایده مانیتورهای اضافی هم برای روتوسکوپی عالی هست

About the N key mulicolor
Does it possible when the key N is released to have the color active before the use of the Key N ?

So I have red color normal use, I press N, I joyous paint with it, I release the key N, I have again the red color!

PS Seems is not yet existing a multiple colors from a same familly like multiple blue, multiple yellow etc... ?
Have a palette only with bues...?

[Taron]

Yes, I wanted that, too...a little bit painful, but yeah, I can do that, remembering the chosen color verses the random during holding the [n] key. Yep, can do that.

As for similar or tinted color pallet stuff, that's all coming!

OH, and about borhani...so, you're suggesting I write the world first artistic artificial intelligence with empathy and soul-cloning powers?
Yeah, I'm up for that...
I think you should pick up programming, too, that sounds like great fun!

Noooooooo PLEASE DO NOT change the current behaviour of the n key.
Or at least if you implement return to last colour...do it as a modifier key...like option N
I use the random colour key EXTENSIVELY and love that actually selects a new colour
otherwise its just generating noise when pressed.....beautiful noise mind you.
I also am pleading for a simple range control ( hue and saturation) for random colour.
Howz about taking that sweet colour variation dial from brush 9 and sticking it under the N key!
What say you master Taron

[Taron]

Ahahahaha, I had JUST realized the exact same thing!
So, I agree completely. Beyond that, I've already hooked up that it retains the brightness and am pondering over a pure hue change, too.
And I noticed that I just had a color deviation control on brush #9, no fancy hue-only behavior ... mixed up initial idea and actual implementation. But therefore it's mighty fast...can't argue against that!

Anyway...I'll play some more with N, because I really like it, too!

: )

about shift+n
instead only for n
you may set a hotkey to last color, when N & when other ...
some apps remember last colors [krita]
and some of them let to toggle [ps]
i like 2 or 3 fast palette paint.
& a distance between shift & N is too much ! N location is in middle and shifts in corners : )
با اینکه خنده دار هست اما دستور های پرکاربرد می توانند احتمالا با ترکیب نزدیک تری از کلید های کیبورد اجرا شوند!

about n randomness
for hue: ... now in brush 9 we have bri.hue in normal mode ... i say that you may give % from it to N mode
it is really useful, and easy for you! and in this mode all brushes can work better! better randomise for easier paint.
i know that you will set a powerful brush-engine later, but seems you accept a little changes are happen sooner

Taron!
!می دانم که وقتی این جور انگلیسی را می خوانی حسابی میخندی ولی چاره ای نیست من تو را درک میکنم
: )

[Taron]

We manage to communicate somehow, b, I'm not worried!
I will have "color history" up very soon! That will also include storing swatches.
Hotkeys in that regard will change the [shift + n] problematic then.

Hi everyone, hi Taron!

First of all, congrats to Taron for this awesome program. As a beginner wanting to learn to paint digitally, I was about to buy Corel-something when I saw on YouTube one of your demos on Verve. Wow. Incredible. Hold on, do not purchase Corel-something yet.
Then I tried Verve at home to see if it was for real.
Then I installed a graphic card and i tried Verve again.
I could not believe my eyes, I was excited just like when I had the opportunity to play a few notes on a brand new Yamaha VL1, some 20 years ago. Sound On Sound wrote then:

"The VL1 is not just another synthesizer. It represents a major change in the way that electronic musical instruments are made and perceived. It really is that different!"

We can say the same for Verve in the realm of digital painting programs. Except that it's for free (the VL1 was not, believe me). This is future happening now. My old graphic card is already becoming very (i mean very) hot for it, I hope it will cope, and I hope I will cope!

The second thing i would like to praise is the quality of the gallery of this forum: such a creativity and artistic ideas! kudos my friends!

Now for the suggestions. After several hours of search, I did not find the equivalent of a flat brush. Brush #7 is the closest thing to what I am looking for, but it is not really a brush (i.e. no bristles), and the angle of the brush barrel is always following the direction of the stroke, which is sometimes nice and sometimes not desirable.

Option 1 would be to be able to lock the angle of brush, after choosing the value of the angle. Like that:

First stroke is a stroke with a brush angle of 90°. The brush hair stays at 90° whatever the stroke direction.
Second stroke is a stroke with an angle of 0°.
Well, you got the idea.

Option 2 would be to control this angle by the Wacom grip pen azimut, and follow it during the stroke.
I've noticed that brush #2 can already follow the azimut, so this is technically doable (alas even when twisting the bias, brush #2 does not become flat).

Option 3 would be to control this angle rather by the barrel rotation of the Wacom Art Pen. Much more convenient for the wrist than option 2! Just like in the real world so to speak, I this would be a great add-on.

Note that in case you would like to implement these features but don't own an Art Pen, i'm available to test unofficial releases featuring the Art Pen things Taron !

Thank you again for this wondeful tool and best regards from France.
