Good work Silvio !<br><br>As about removing build-up choice, at first I though like Lukas that it produced different result, but after some tests it looks like flow produce exactly the same result than opacity in build-up mode.<br>

> We had wash because the strokes were always too dark, back in the 1.6 days. Bart Coppens implemented this separation, I seem to remember. It's not quite the same as Gimp's direct and indirect painting mode, but it was meant to make sure you could, in one stroke, repeatedly go over the same area without making the result darker.<br>
</div>Ok I've implemented it right now.<br>
Please check it out :D (the others too of course).<br>
Photoshop actually only works with indirect painting.<br>
I agree that we should remove the "Painting Mode" option from the brushes.<br>
Internally we need the distinguishing between direct and indirect<br>
painting of course.<br>
But we don't need it in the UI anymore.<br>
The Photoshop way is actually pretty smart. It behaves like if you would<br>
blend between<br>
"build up" and "wash" mode.<br>
<br>
The brushes that work only in direct painting mode don't have the<br>
"Painting Mode" option anyway<br>
and for the brushes that have this option we should set the painting<br>
mode fixed to indirect.<br>
