Description gamut 2009-10-20 15:13:41 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian stable Packages

I have 3 requests for kolourpaint:

1. Support for the RAS (Sun rasterfile) graphics file format (.ras, .im8, .im16, .im24, .im32) including RLE

2. A configurable grid (meaning width and height of a gridbox as well as color of grid lines)

3. A simple gradient tool. Picking two colors, drawing a line, and a flood fill happens with the gradient along the direction of the line.

Ad 1: This is a KDE global (kimgio library) issue. image/x-sun-raster is already supported (read only), although it was not registered as allowed input MimeType for kolourpaint - fixed that for 4.8
Note: The shared-mime-info database from freedesktop.org holds the only filename patter as "*.sun".
If that is not correct, please contact freedesktop.org

The other 2 wishes might be nice ... let's see.
