All painting is done in a GEGL Buffer - but the events got from the user don't traverse a GEGL interface into GEGL nodes which paint on these buffers: I think it should not be to hard to think of a way (I am not saying about it would not be hard to implement - I am saying it would not be hard to think about it) - of getting the events processed in GIMP, have the parts which does the dynamics in a separate logic layer, in a way one could get the processed events in an arbitrary GEGL node - the events would simply be an input. That way, the modular design of GEGL could be used to create modular tools into GIMP. js -><- On 26 January 2014 00:47, Daniel Sabo <danielsabo@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > All painting is GEGL based in 2.10; I don't think there is any plan to > allow arbitrary ops for painting.
