Toolbar icons vs. Tool cursors
SUMMARY
The brush cursors icons that Krita displays when using various tools on the
canvas
are kinda a mess right now. Would be nice having them cleaned up or redrawn.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set "Configure Krita..." -> "General" -> "Cursor" -> "Brush Cursor Icon" to
"Tool Icon"
2. Select mentioned tools below and hover the canvas.
ISSUES
- Edit Shapes Tool:
Uses a custom narrow cursor instead of the system cursor any other tool
uses
in similar cases.
- Freehand Brush Tool, Polygon Tool, Crop Tool, Polygonal Selection Tool:
Cursor uses obsolete icon from Krita 2.x
- Dynamic Brush Tool, Multibrush Brush Tool, Colorize Mask Tool:
Reuses the obsolete Freehand Brush cursor.
- Freehand Selection Tool:
The bean is much thicker on the cursor than the toolbar icon. Also no other
custom cursor gives the pointer a tail.
- Line Tool:
The angle of the line is different between the cursor and the toolbar icon.
- Ellipse Tool, Elliptical Selection Tool:
Cursor is too oval compared to the toolbar icon.
- Polyline Tool:
Lines on the cursor intersect sooner than on the toolbar icon.
- Smart Patch Tool:
Missing cursor.
- Fill Tool:
Weird Windows 9x-style paint bucket cursor, very different from the current
toolbar icon.
- Sample Color Tool, Similar Color Selection Tool:
Both of them use an eyedropper icon, however they are inconsistent with
each
other. The crosshair positions and eyedropper shapes are different.
- Zoom Tool:
The only cursor using 2px wide outlines.
- Magnetic Curse Selection Tool:
Magnet faces the opposite direction than on the toolbar icon.
- Calligraphy Tool, Distance Measurement Tool:
Both of them use a crosshair cursor, however they are inconsistent with
each
other. One of the uses a system cursor, the other one uses a custom bitmap.
