Simple Painting Application - Day Three
So this was our third day of returning to university during the holidays which wasn't entirely favorable but once again necessary but with the weekend to think about what we had to do we had a fresh mind and new ideas. So we decided that although we couldn't play with the width we followed through with an idea that was present in Photoshop. We wanted to insert images, as a means of a substitute for a pencil and brush, so like Photoshop we wanted to have the possibility of choosing to draw with a star or maybe a leaf as a pencil and brush. And so we worked on that, we managed to develop the image button which was a start, but found ourselves at yet another dead end for an idea too complicated for us to achieve. We weren't able to find a way to connect the image into our Xcode and Interface Builder both at the same time so it was time to implicate our other idea which was changing the background color. This was inspired by the most basic of paint programs, Paint itself, which like the paint bucket tool, you can change the background color so we decided to work on that and with great joy we came up with the idea to create an RGB slider. Based on where you slide it on the Red, Green or Blue scale, you can change the background color completely to your own preference which was a good moral boost altogether for us. So with the days end it was time to leave and come back again another day.
