Users can switch the preset dialog in two modes: locked or
unlocked. The first mode hides the dock: users can not create or modify the preset icons anymore, but clicking on a desktop icon will close the dialog. This mode makes the preset change quicker and fits a drawing usage.
Tip: Users can change the preset dialog mode by using the interface configuration dialog or by doing a long click on the preset valid icon.
Thanks to this dialog, users can set some characteristics of their brushes: size, opacity, hardness, etc. plouik handles 2 different kinds of brush: native and stamp. Users can switch between those modes by clicking on the top image.
plouik handles these native brushes thanks to the Android API path. It makes a really sweet and accurate drawing but opacity and size dynamics are not allowed.
Each icon represents a brush setting which can be updated thanks to the right slide bar(s).
