Description Daniel Rogers 2003-11-24 04:49:39 UTC 
When stroking with pressure sensitivity linked to size, the dot spacing
should be able to be scaled with the size.  Scaling the dot spacing would
mean that size scaling scales the entire stroke shape, and doesn't cause
the shape of the stroke as a whole to change when pressure is light.

I belive the correct formulation would scale the size with the diamater of
the pixmap, but this probably requires experimentation to ensure that the
stroke shape is unchanged.

I remember that I tried to implement this when I added
pressure-sensitive brush scaling four years ago. It turned out to be
non-trivial.
Comment 2 Alexia Death 2008-05-23 17:07:12 UTC 
It presumes reworking of the interpolation code  that at the same time should be made to use some other, nonlinear algorithm for interpolating stamp positions because in addition to messed up spacing and fast curve with a mouse will clearly display where the segments are...
