Description
Wayne Rasband reported in the ImageJ mailing list:
> In the ImageJ 1.47 daily build, thanks to Michael Schmid, the built in (selected from the toolbar's ">>" menu) Brush, Overlay Brush and Pencil tools work this way:
> - Shift-drag constrains drawing to be horizontal or vertical
> - Shift-ctrl-drag changes the cursor size
> - Ctrl selects the foreground color
> - Alt-drag draws in the background color
>
> On Macs, use the command key instead of the control key.
We should support these conventions if possible.
