Smudge Tweaks testers needed

I’m also curious how color management will influence color picking, mixing, modifying, etc? Is it similar to what is described in these krita docs? Gamma et linéaire — Documentation Krita Manual 5.2.0

I also revisited my early flat-brush problem and came up with a hacky way to get it working (somewhat). The new brush locks rotation (direction filter) after a very short distance (stroke input) to avoid buckets mixing up on rotation. During that distance the smudge length is set to 0, which - as I read it from the C code - already resets a single bucket. The short moving distance is also needed for the user to get the rotation right easily after pressing down the stylus

In the end it’s very hacky and I dont like it very much :poop: but I’m using it in a current painting. I guess some input for drawing-angle change might be useful / needed for this to work without having to lock the rotation. But I imagine that to be quite bit messy too since it basically needs to remember the drawing angle for many dabs to be able to look back based on some X distance or something.

Do you have any thoughts on this / a different suggestion? I never got any round brush with manual dab placement to draw very smooth/clean strokes like this simple, flat one. Might be usefull for your brushes as well, as they seem to have the same issue…

edit: brush is quite sensitive, you might have to press very lightly
