Description eliotJ 2013-11-28 05:57:48 UTC
Krita v2.7.8.28 – „Draw a polygon tool” – duplicated one should be deleted, because both have same base functionality + ONLY one has Tool Options: Fill and Outline. In my opinion, two „Draw a polygon tool” make disorientation and lack of consistency. One kind of this tool will be nicer, simpler and more professional solution.

Reproducible: Always

Looks for URL it shows these nice :)

Well, the two tools do something different: with the pologon tool you always make closed paths, which is why it has a fill option, but the polyline tool allows to make open paths. I do agree though that we should combine the two tools, especially since polyline now makes it really easy to make closed paths.

Good to know that you agree with this mine proposal. I hope I will see this in Krita :).

WISHGROUP: Out of scope

Sorry, after three  years, I don't think we'll get down to this any time soon, so putting it too later. There's also the issue of existing documentation to be considered.

Ok. I hope someday this tools will be fused to one :)
