Hi all, and happy new year! Just a heads-up that some development for the next version of Tux Paint has been done, and I've added a set of new drawing tools for drawing in 1-Point, 2-Point, and 3-Point perspective, as well as adjusting/positioning vanishing points. Further to that, I've added a new "complexity" setting, that allows a user to specify their expertise level with Tux Paint (or art software, or computers in general), which allows some Magic tools to behave differently. For example, the perspective drawing tools mentioned above will normally (in the default "advanced" complexity mode) appear as six different magic tools: three for drawing, and three for adjusting their respective vanishing point(s). However, in "beginner" mode, only drawing tools will be made available; you're stuck with the default vanishing points. In fact, a fourth drawing tool, an alterlative version of the 3-point perspective, will be made available in this case. (One for drawings "looking up from below", and the alternative for "looking down from above".) Lots of strings have been added (or in some cases changed) based on this work, and a bunch of other things I've done recently *, so if you've got the time & interest, please grab the latest PO files and send me (or commit back, if you have Git access) updates. Thanks as always, and take care! Wishing you all the best for 2024, -bill! * All over the place: `tuxpaint`, `tuxpaint-docs`, `tuxpaint-website`, `tuxpaint-config` repos.
