            Bug ID: 375155
           Summary: Add option to texture each dab instead of stroke
           Product: krita
           Version: 3.1.1
          Platform: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Brush engine
          Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: nathan.lovato....@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Textures are always multiplied or subtracted from a brush stroke. It gives a
stencil-like effect that's useful in some cases, but it makes it hard to give
the brush a natural look. The main problem is that the texture gets applied
evenly to the stroke, so the cutoff doesn't solve the problem, even though it
helps to improve results.

That's why I'd like to suggest an new option to apply the texture to the brush
dab instead of the strokes. This would allow the user to enrich the brush tip
in a sense, and to create powerful combinations.

I expect it would also make it easier to use textures with the blending
brushes, as it would make the stroke more opaque overall with the same spacing
(with dabs stacking on top of one another). Currently, it's hard to get good
results with textures and the blending engine.

Here's a picture to compare the same texture applied to the stroke and to each
dab, with the multiply mode: http://i.imgur.com/BxvoORz.png
The most interesting part is how the texture shows through as you release the
pressure and the flow gets lower. It's similar to how the grain of the paper
appears as you finish strokes.
