Wish List: text, opacity++, exporting, line style, usability

[anderflash]

• Text:
  • font
  • color
  • size
• Opacity:
  • different opacity values for specific pens
  • shortcut for opacity++ and opacity-- for pens without fixed opacity values
• Exporting
  • just the drawings (transparent png, svg, pdf,...)
  • drawing+screen (png, jpg, pdf...)
• Line style: solid, dash, dots...
• Usability
  • An informative small panel (like conky): current pen color, size, opacity, line style.
• Shapes: rectangle, circle, star, triangle...
• Smoothness: gimp has some pencil styles to get better curves (I tend to have shaky curves without it).
• Color Palette: a list of squares offering visual color switching.
