I've tried to concentrate on making the defaults more sensible instead: see ba6ba5ab on master (https://gitorious.org/mypaint/mypaint/commit/ba6ba5ab5788c71ccf248cdc5395085e20d53d22 and its parent couple of commits). It includes a few of your suggestions - let me know what you think.	Andrew Chadwick <achadwick>

Thanks Having the option on the 'view' main menu sound also good. ( sorry for the late reply ; Gmail now mark as spam mails from Gna.org ... even if I made a filter for them ...bleeeee ^ ^ )	David REVOY <deevad>

Brush blend modes like Lock Alpha and Colorize are fairly esoteric. I'll see what I can do about eraser mode, however. That probably should be more available. Helpfully, the toolbar button works as a toggle. What should be on by default? I think File handling Undo/Redo Edit modes Blend modes View (Main) View (Resetting) Subwindows is a good set these days.

Sat 15 Dec 2012 10:30:54 AM UTC, original submission: Hey, I keep receiving emails from other testers or user of the PPA ( 2 this week + 1 comment on deviantART ) about them not sure to have the last version of Mypaint, because they saw on my screenshot more icons on my toolbar. And by default their Mypaint look naked. It appears the 'right-click' on the toolbar to add icons is a feature even user able to compile and test can't discover by themself. When I tell them the trick they often say they looked if an option exist for it in the preference panel. And it make sens. A first solution I suggest is to make more icon visible on the toolbar by default :) A user sent me this link to ask for the icons ( http://imageftw.com/uploads/20121215/mypaintgit1.png ) and in this setup default, even the eraser is missing, and pan/zoom tools.
