Pen should be vector, or something less pixelated.
Like this:support if optionset pen to [vector v]::pen????
set pen to [bitmap v]::pen
If it was like this, support. Sometimes I want the pixellated version for Pen

This resolution issue bugs me, especially with people raving over how fantastic vector graphics are. At least be consistent, consarnit! Support.

I support the dropdown for it. I use vector, and never pen. It's a pixely mess.

Support, so projects could be 100% vector, without fullscreen issue.

I know this is old but I'll reply anyway since this just got duplicated.done!I'm not sure if vector pen would be possible, since it would have to create a new vector object for each pen stroke, and those objects could only be deleted with clear, I don't see how it could be done without causing too much lag.I'll start working on some html/js/svg to fix that
thanks for the ideas
code follows-snip-
I suppose what I should have said was that vector pen would be impractical, not impossible. It's not hard to make it work, but that creates a new vector line for every pen stroke. Those would build up over time and make it lag, whereas bitmap pen is always just a fixed-size image and strokes overwrite whatever is underneath them. The only way to remove those vector strokes would be to clear the pen, or to constantly check for strokes that are completely covered up which would be really intensive.

I only really notice the pixelated effect of pen in full screen, so why not just have it be higher definition in fullscreen and normal in non-fullscreen. (what's the right term?)

I agree. It looks ugly and less detailed and less realistic with pixels.

Support! I frequently use the pen (on my other account), and I think it can get kind of annoying that the pen is pixellated.

Support, because then pen games would look a lot better.
