hi all,
here's a description of GIMP's basic image manipulation model
from a UI point of view that i'd like to share:
http://yahvuu.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/gimpmodes1.pdf
This is intended as inspiration for user interface thoughts
rather than being thorough documentation. Originally planned
for the brainstorm, it just didn't work without some words..
A summary in ASCII follows below.
Feedback is highly appreciated.
enjoy,
peter
The GIMP user interface has many modes, for starters
see the manual, chapter 4: 'Getting Unstuck'. These
modes can be grouped into five main categories which
build the basic image manipulation model:
tool type: pencil, airbrush, ...
tool state: {color, gradient, brush, pattern}
selection mask: empty, some pixels, all pixels
channel mask: RGBA, R only, ...
paint context: layer1, layer2, ...
