Sample multiple colors on the canvas and reference

While working with brushes that can sample multiple colors with the mixer pad, I think it would be useful to be able to sample on the canvas and reference as well

Real pigment blending

This video shows that it is possible to blend proper as traditional do. This is nothing the user can install, the developers have to incorporate it into the software. Rebelle 5 already use it and I want Painter to take benefit of this to. https://...

Add color swatches to custom palettes

Custom Palettes are very useful to add brushes, painter commands, papers, Flow maps, even dabs, so you know how you created the image. But it would be helpful to add color swatches as well, because you can save the palette and remember the exact c...

Resize image dpi, width and length independantly

At present resizing in Painter is ineffective to those that wish to resize only resolution or width or length independently. For example. If I have an image 12" by 10" at 72 dpi and would like to make it 12" x 12" at 150 dpi I can not.

Make Text Layer from PS remain functional

Title says it all. If layer styles are added in PS then one goes back to Painter we get an error message about unsupported effects or layers.
