coolalex131 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Why does the eraser act like a paintbrush. I'm editing Minecraft textures for a map with custom resource pack and yet when I erase a pixel, it slightly erases any pixels near it, like the paintbrush tool. It's driving me insane, how do I stop it!?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 The eraser acts like a paintbrush because it's literally supposed to be that way. If you want to erase individual pixels, then use the pencil tool: set the color to transparent, and the blending mode to Overwrite.

BoltBait Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 This question comes up occasionally. Perhaps it would be useful to change the behavior of the eraser to act like an overwrite pencil when the size of the eraser is set to 1. Or, you could have a hard/soft setting on the eraser.

Rick Brewster Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Ok so turn off antialiasing? Same effect. The capability is there, you just have to spend a few seconds looking for it.

Just for future REF, I think there should be a tool to erase pixel by pixel. But how do I turn antialising off?

coolalex131 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Also, Nevermind, turned Antialising off but every time I try to erase something, it erases the pixel above rather than the one I want to erase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do this: If you want to erase individual pixels, then use the pencil tool: set the color to transparent, and the blending mode to Overwrite.
