About Paintbrush:Paintbrush is a Cocoa-based paint program for Mac OS X, similar to Microsoft Paint and the now-defunct MacPaint. The project's ultimate goal is to recreate the basic functionality of Microsoft Paint, which has been noticeably absent from Mac OS X for years. Paintbrush can open and save to most major image formats, including BMP, PNG, JPEG, and GIF.Paintbrush is not intended to replace Photoshop or other high-end image editors. Instead, it aims to fill the need for a basic, streamlined editor for those times when you just feel the need to doodle.New in version 1.1: * Added in 1.1: o Fill tool completely rewritten, resulting in a significant speed gain o Limited undo stack to 10 undos (reducing chance for memory overflow) o SUBMITTED: Grid overlay now available o Zooming image will not cause funny scrolling to occur o By default, images created by Paintbrush will open in Paintbrush in the Finder o Bomb tool animation can be immediately completed by pressing ESC o Preliminary support for Shift key in Selection tool o Text insertion uses front color, automatically opens font panel o Color accuracy has been improved (now using calibrated instead of device colors) o Added button to switch foreground and background colors o Toolbox shortcut key changed to better represent functionality * Fixed in 1.1: o REQUESTED: No longer uses wrong size when opening certain JPEGs o REQUESTED: Second click on either color well hides panel, avoiding confusion o Pastes in correct bottom-left corner when zoomed o Changing colors during bomb animation will not change the color being used o Undo no longer makes duplicates of image clippings when used with Selection tool o Paste no longer occasionally places image in Toolbox instead of the document window o Scrollbars in correct location after zoom, opening large imagesInstallationTo install Paintbrush, open the disk image and drag the Paintbrush icon to the Applications folder.
