An Option to improve self-overlapped strokes

[akira]

It's a known issue that when a stroke is self-overlapped, there will be a "valley" effect at the intersection area.

But now I have a new idea to improve it.

Let me explain the valley effect more clearly with the extrude tool of voxel mode:

You can analogize the height of the stroke in this picture to the color alpha of the stroke in the first picture.

I can 90% be sure that the current alpha operation of the intersection area might be:

pseudo code:

if overlapped do (
colorAlpha = max(previousAlpha, currentAlpha)
)

What I ask for is to add an option to have another alpha operation method

pseudo code:

if overlapped do (
colorAlpha = min(1.0, previousAlpha + currentAlpha)
)

With above operation it will be much easier to fill an area with one single stroke.

It's a little difficult to do so with current alpha operation method:

Yes, really first pseudo-code is used for standerd pen. But second is also used - for airbrush pen. So adding slightly advanced spacing can solve the issue. I have already made in VS, maybe I will do it in DP also.

Thank you Andrew, really hope to see this on standard pens, the shape of the airbrush pen is a little blobby to me.

About the airbrush, after tested it in DP mode, I found out that it works only on layer 0,

if you paint on any blank area in other layers, it's not working.
