Hi!
Thanks, pasih!
Very nice painting!

I am very glad that more and more people dare to show
their artworks...

Ok, I have no "much" problems with <ctrl> key pick color.. it is actually very nice. I have also config "R" -key to Pick Color.

I do not know but did anybody use <ctrl>+<arrow keys> to rotate canvas.. I just figured out that it is configurated this way..
very easy to rotate and you do not have to sacrify those precious keys for that task.

ALSO I made changes for "moving=dragging" canvas conf key..
it is fixed for <space>bar but I found it very had to use.. because it is so far away...

SO I have modified
/home/opt/mypaint/share/mypaint/gui/drawwindows.py file.

if key == keysyms.space:
if ctrl:
self.tdw.start_drag(self.dragfunc_rotate)
else:
self.tdw.start_drag(self.dragfunc_translate)
else: return False
return True
def key_release_event_cb_before(self, win, event):
if event.keyval == keysyms.space:
self.tdw.stop_drag(self.dragfunc_translate)
self.tdw.stop_drag(self.dragfunc_rotate)
return True
return False


I replaced <space> to q -key so I can easily reach that when I draw.. now it is very easy to moving around canvas

EDIT: I assume that if you are Left-handed you are fine with <space>bar dragging canvas

I also modified "rotation degree" now it is 22.5. so I can rotate
between landscape and portrait. (drawwindow.py - about line 900)

and Erase works now old way, its not change size when toggle eraser mode (drawwindow.py - about line 100) 0 replaces 3*(0.3)
