View font thumbnail

I would love to have a view of the font when using the text tool. I believe all graphics programs have this ability. It would be helpful if the last three fonts that was used were listed at the top so you could easily find them. Also maybe have a ...

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.

Layer Styles for Text
