Yes, a new version...again. But this time it's really rather a fix!
[ctrl]+[d] freezes fluids properly again! :? :)

v0.99v.29 is up!
Thanks to Celeste's wonderful input, I've added the ability to set the GUI's Layer Blade's color! [Ctrl]+[Left Mouse Button] click anywhere on the layer, except the tiny add/merge and hide buttons, and the layer takes on your currently active color! :ugeek: :D

I just uploaded a little fix for file associations. If you now associate any of verve's filetypes with verve_painter.exe, it will load it just fine! :geek:
(Thanks, frew! :ob )

v0.99v.30 is up!
I am preparing the GUI to be a little less cluttered, removing test dials for desaturation and perception and the GAMMA dial, which really was also merely a test. Instead the HUE DANCER is now where that GAMMA dial used to be!
I've also fixed the frame handles for the IMAGE BRUSH capture to work properly without accidentally leaving a paint dot. That was high time, too... :roll:

Yes, here it is... version v0.99v.31 has arrived, just in time to still greet the new year 2018!
[Ctrl]+[L] brings up the brand new Color Correction Unit "LAYER FX"... read more above!
I can almost promise you, that it will do weird stuff, but I can also promise you that it can work beautifully, too. I've encountered only a few weird things that I yet have to figure out, such as an occasional jumping of handles on the histogram and you may observe certain clippings, if you go for extreme "curve handle" squeezes.

I'm assuming that most of it is fairly obvious, except possibly the handles on the histogram. You have 5 handles on it. The first and the last are most obvious. With those you can move the darkest colors and brightest colors to where you want to have them. You can even invert it manually. The center handle allows you to shift the center value around. But then there are the two magical handles around the center handle. Those are bias handles. The upper and the lower half of the histogram can be biased independently, allowing you to do curve like operations to control contrast for each channel.
Besides the brightness and all color channels you also have the material channel. This one is the spookiest of them all and it ignores the Blend dial! It allows you to modify the paint buildup on your layer, making some fascinating things possible!

All in all, I already beg your forgiveness for some potential weirdness. I also haven't tested it on ATI or Intel, yet, but I am assuming it should work just fine?!

I hope, you will enjoy this and I wish you a HAPPY NEW YEAR! :beer:

Another quick update...no version number change, yet!
I've added TINT and +LAYERS to the LayerFX GUI.
TINT allows you to tint all colors towards the current chosen color.
+LAYERS will apply your color correction to all layers. It will, however, not apply material changes to all layers. That's a trickier thing for now.
REPLACE you might've already encountered. It allows you to change colors based on a mask around your currently chosen color. The higher the value, the tighter the selection around the currently chosen color.
It may be annoying that both TINT and REPLACE use the currently chosen color. Later I may add ways to select colors individually for those. But it does feel quite nice right now to have such a direct action.

- Brush #2 bias now changes size nicely when pressure is used!

Thanks to HiccupsVoice there's a pretty significant little fix up now. Cropping into a mirrored image should work just fine now! :? :D
...just download again, please, I didn't go up a version number!
