I'm confused. >From my understanding, if stroke information is stored in the node, then the stroke can be regenerated, and that operation will be non-destructive since the cache can be regenerated. I think David says about "non-destructive" brush operation. I saw source code of gegl-paint. It seems that gegl_vector stores the information of the path, so I think it is also about non-destructive brush tool. On the other hand, Øyvind says that we can implement "destructive" brush. I think being "destructive" implies that there's no way to regenerate the stroke since being able to regenerate the stroke means that the cache is regeneratable, so the operation must not have any path information. My concern is about this case. Let's say, If the following operation sequences are executed, how can we undo and redo the brush operation (C) and (D)? And what will happen if we change the prarameter of the operation (B)? (A) load an image from external resource. (B) do filter operation, "non-destructive." (C) do brush operation, "destructive." (D) do another brush operation, "destructive." (E) do filter operation, "non-destructive." If my assumption is wrong, please let me know. -- Souichi TAKASHIGE _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
