図15.29 The MyPaint Brushes dialog

The MyPaint Brushes dialog

The MyPaint Brushes dialog is used to select a MyPaint brush, for use with painting tools: see the MyPaint Brush tool section for more information on MyPaint brushes and how they are used in GIMP. The dialog also gives you access to several functions for manipulating brushes. You can select a brush by clicking on it in the list: it will then be shown in the Tool Options area of the Toolbox when the MyPaint Brush is the active tool.

3.3.2. Using the MyPaint Brushes dialog

3.3.2.1. 升目表示と列挙表示

ブラシダイアログのタブメニューで 並べて表示一覧で表示 を切り替えられます。 並べて表示を選ぶと一度にたくさんのブラシ見本が探せるように各ブラシアイコンは升目状に並べられます。 一覧で表示の場合はブラシ見本とその名前が一覧表に列挙されます。

並べて表示

At the top of the dialog appears a filter box where you can filter the MyPaint brushes shown based on their tags; and the name of the currently selected brush.

In the center a grid view of all available brushes is shown, with the currently selected one outlined. Below the grid is a box that shows the tags assigned to the currently selected brush.

一覧表に列挙して表示

For the most part, the dialog works the same way in List mode as in Grid mode, with the following exception: the name of the current brush isn't shown at the top.

3.3.2.2. MyPaint Brush previews

When you click on a brush preview, it becomes the current brush and it gets selected in the MyPaint Brush Tool Options. You can also click on buttons at the bottom of the dialog to perform various actions.

3.3.2.3. タグづけ

You can use tags to reorganize the MyPaint brushes display. See 「タグづけ」.

3.3.2.4. ダイアログ底部に並ぶアイコンボタン

The button bar at the bottom offers the following functionality:

Edit MyPaint Brush

This button is always disabled since GIMP does not support editing MyPaint brushes. This is also the reason why there is no create new brush button.

ブラシの複製

This button is always disabled.

ブラシの削除

This button is always disabled.

ブラシの更新

If you add brushes to your personal Brushes Folder or any other folder in your MyPaint brushes search path, this button causes the list to be reloaded, so that the new entries will be available in the dialog.

Some of functions performed by these buttons can also be accessed from the dialog pop-up menu, activated by right-clicking anywhere in the brush grid/list, or by choosing the top item, MyPaint Brushes menu, from the dialog Tab menu.

3.3.2.5. The MyPaint Brushes context menu

Right clicking on a brush preview opens a context menu. Most of the commands of this submenu are described with the Buttons, except for the following.

Copy MyPaint Brush Location

Copy MyPaint Brush Location allows you to copy the MyPaint brush path to the clipboard.

Show in File Manager

Show in File Manager opens the location of the MyPaint brush in the default File Manager on your system.
