Overview
goPaintAdvanced's default brush is the Feather.
Left-click with the Feather to open the GUI, where you can customize, import, and export brushes.
Right-click with any brush to use it in the direction you're facing.
Importing and Exporting Brushes
Exporting a brush allows you to save and store multiple brushes, similar to how WorldEdit handles brushes. This means you can easily switch between brushes, giving you the flexibility to work with as many brushes as you need simultaneously.
Importing a brush into the GUI lets you customize that specific brush without having to re-enter all the settings, streamlining the process for quick adjustments.
Export a brush: Click an item on the toggle in the GUI.
Import a brush: Click the item on the toggle again to import it.
