The ability to change palettes on different frames of an animation would be
nice.
Streamline the user interface! If I bring up the "Goto frame" requester, why do
I have to revert to the mouse, aim carefully at that tiny field, and click on
it? The field should pop up already activated. Double-clicking on a filename
should select the file. I should be able to move from field to field using
Tab/Backtab, with Return as OK and Escape as Cancel. Basically, follow the
current Amiga user interface guidelines.
If I'm working on a very large image, it takes forever to scroll from one side
to the next! I should be able to "Show page" and click on the area I want to
scroll to.
Do you still have those nasty Enforcer hits? Baaaad software developer, no
cookie.
It's hard for me to come up with more suggestions. I find DPaint a pure joy to
work in. It's the single most responsive program on my Amiga, and its
almost-perfect interface makes every function painless to use. Its main problem
is my Amiga 3000's limited color resolution, and that's no fault of yours. I
wish 16 colors were enough these days, so that I could create artwork in DPaint
_much_ more often. It's truly an exhilarating experience every time I use it.
Blaq!
