It might be the case that one of the programmers on the Gnome project ran into the same use-case I had one day, tried to use GIMP for it, and then mumbled something along the lines of "I'm using a scalpel where I need a nuclear weapon." Or similar. You get the point.

about time. I currently use Kolourpaint, and it pulls in 100s of mbs of KDE libs. I would love a gnome native paint.
Paint apps are an utter essential. they can be used to quickly mark up photos, screenshots, etc... very, very very useful tool

But if you do use other Qt apps, then yes, Kolourpaint isn't so bad.

I didn't quite understand your use-case, but I encourage you to submit an issue on the bug tracker. I would be surprised if it was difficult to implement, and if it makes the software "perfect" for you, why not ask?
Reading the comments here makes me think there could be a use case for some kolourpaint appimage: 1-file executable with all the dependencies, pretty much mspaint.exe

Will they add the ability to create 3D models in gnome paint? Microsoft paint is getting a major overhaul that includes being able to draw objects in 2D and then convert them into 3D models. https://techcrunch.com/2016/10/26/th...eators-update/

But of course that’s not included in the $00 price for Gnome Paint, you have to pay a whole lot extra $0000 for Blender.

I'm actually quite surprised how many people are recommending KolourPaint here, given that it's basically a clone of MS Paint from before Windows 7. A good clone of an absolutely terrible piece of software, IMHO.
I wouldn't mind an alternative to Gimp/Krita for simple things, but please, please don't make this another MS Paint from the 90s.
