Transparency behaviour

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What would you like to be changed or added ?

Hi

It would be great if the transparency behaviour is modified abit. At the moment 
the paint looks muddy after couple strokes with a slightly bigger brush. It 
makes it look like it is drawn with an airbrush rather than a transparent 
non-aliased brush.

select white background
select a brush that is bigger than couple pixels
select black as paint color
press 5 for %50 trans
paint in continuous fashion.
try different transparency settings

Please check out ase`s simple brush opacity for reference in my view. It is 
just simple opacity and when the paint overlayed on eachother it does not look 
smudged what so ever.

thanks for this great program.

This is because you have Feedback=ON in the Effects screen, so when the 
freenhand tool "pastes" the brush multiple times, pixels near the center of the 
brush get redrawn many times and their darkening effect is repeated.
If you set Feedback=OFF, the effect will be applied to the colors "before you 
started drawing", so all pixels will be darkened only once. I think it's what 
you're looking for.

Feedback ON and OFF are both useful, it depends on what you're trying to do.

Hi

Thank you for the follow up. The name Feedback was not so obvious. In
any case thanks for your help :)
