What tools are you using in the toolbox?
The most important tools are I think the following:
1. Pen
2. Selection
3. Dropper

What do you think about these ones:
- Rectangle tool
- Ellipse tool
- Flood tool
- Darken/lighten tool
- Damage tool (building)
- Line tool

Would you think they are useful or necessary? By that I mean, do you use them?

Because I was thinking if you guys are using photoshop, or some other tools,
and then only use OSSB to correct some pixels, convert to SHP or other utilities,
that would mean I wouldn't have to reimplement these tools in my app, or even in OSSB
since I'm currently changing how the Selection tool is working.

Of the latter ones you listed I personally only use the Flood and Line tools (and maybe on a rare occasion when the sitation calls for it also the Rectangle tool), but for the rest I prefer to copy the frame I'm editing to Photoshop and use its tools instead.

So far I had use for all of them, and sometimes I wished there was a circle painting tool like in Paint.
The main reason might be that I don't have photoshop...

Okay, I'll take the time to reimplement all of them then.

By the way the darken lighten tool dosen't seem to be very neccesary, I personally only used it some in beginning, but now I just use flood (spray in some rare cases) to colour some areas darker/brighter.
