This bug is already Fixed in git, but is marked as Open. I am now
marking it Closed because a new stable version, 1.1.0, is
available, meaning that this bug no longer affects the current
stable release.

Please reopen if this problem reoccurs with the new version of
MyPaint!

O_o That was fast ! Thx, I will test.

For the behavior, you're probably right. This sound different as other solutions I tested on other software. But as you have proven time and again on Mypaint creation your very great way to approach ergonomy for painter workflow , I totally trust your proposition.

For sure, this sound very good with blending modes ; I can already imagine a 'shader' preset with a light grey color on 'multiply' , and a preset as you said for enlight based on overlay.
Also , this will gives life to preset like 'Fire' , and fun effect. Experimental will grow for sure ;)

Hi,
I was talking on Xchat about this :
Offer the possibility to the user to save also the active color when a brush preset is saved. This can be traduced by a checkbox, unchecked by default.

This can be useful for creating brush set with color embeded ; a kind of hybrid between a hue palette and brush presets. It's also makes possible to reproduce some of traditionnal tool :
ex :
Blue ball pen
Sepia charcoal
Copic markers set
10 default watercolors of tiny box of Windsor&Newton
black inking

This can simulate the feature of software like 'Sketchbook : free Copic edition" ( http://itunes.apple.com/fr/app/sketchbook-copic-edition/id447678864?mt=12 ) and attract other concurrent brand to build preset the same way. ( http://www.brigade97kat.com/product/2075/Sketch/Black-book/Touch-Set-12-P?osCsid=fe0447164cca7953ef5a1717ec122713 )without have to deal with Autodesk. I would be happy to mail their marketing to propose this against sponsoring a developpers for a period.
