            Bug ID: 452887
           Summary: Merge Dynamic Brush Tool with the Freehand Brush Tool
                    smoothing/stabilization options
           Product: krita
           Version: 5.0.5
          Platform: Appimage
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Usability
          Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: tomtomtomreportin...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Despite being an avid user of the software, I only recently realized that the
Dynamic Brush Tool gives pleasing, stabilized curves for my inking compared to
the typical smoothing options of the Freehand Brush Tool. With a conservative
configuration, it also doesn't get in the way when drawing tiny lines/circles
like the "Weighted" option does, nor does it suffer from the jagginess of the
"Stabilizer" option.  

Not only is there a discoverability issue here for users looking for ideal
stabilization (or at least stabilization similar to solutions from other
software), but this separate tool is often ignored by brush preset hotkey
plugins such as Ten Brushes and Three Slots, causing additional workflow
papercuts having to juggle additional hotkeys/actions. It also just feels
redundant to have a separate brush tool simply for another stabilization
algorithm.

Additional suggestions:
* Rename "Brush Smoothing" label to "Brush Stabilization"
* To go along with the above suggestion, rename the "Stabilizer" option to
"Traditional" (?)
* Perhaps add the stabilization actions to the default toolbar
* Reset buttons to reset to the default stabilizer configurations
