           Summary: Add shortcuts and slider for Fade and Scatter in Auto
                    brush mode
           Product: krita
           Version: nightly build (please specify the git hash!)
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

  Target Milestone: ---

Please consider adding shortcuts and sliders for Fade and Scatter in Auto brush
mode.

The "Fade" option here refers to F5 panel -> Auto -> Fade. It has a horizontal
and a vertical slider and a lock ratio button. In Photoshop, a similar option
is labeled as "Hardness". It can be accessed from the Brush settings menu. 

This option is an essential tool for artists who employ a "digitally smooth"
coloring style -- like what I did before I migrated to Krita. I remember when I
was using PS, the Hardness and Scatter sliders are the two things I use all the
time. It allows me to have fine control to the brush's softness and simple
texture on the fly.

Although Krita has the same options in F5 menu, they are lost in an ocean of
options and quite difficult to be located quickly.

As the color manga artist community began to notice Krita, the lack of a
shortcut for Fade has been brought up more and more. But since most of them are
living in CJK region, the message probably never reached the Krita team.
Without shortcuts for Fade and Scatter, color manga artists cannot keep
adaquate efficiency at their work, which is a major block for them to adopt
Krita.

In summary, my requests are:

1) Add Fade/Scatter sliders to Toolbar and Popup Palette.
2) Add shortcuts for Fade/Scatter parameters.
3) We don't need to control Fade with X/Y separated. We only need the shortcuts
and sliders to control Fade/Scatter in a 1:1 ratio fashion.

I believe adding these features will open the gate for more artists to be able
to use Krita efficiently in their production. Please consider, and thank you
for your time!
