If that is the intent why does the user need to see them at all? Cant they be hidden and called "api" brushes?

It would also allow for 3rd party scripts that need very specific brushes that are useless for generic use to hide them. -- Alexia _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
