Request: "Remembering" last used parameters vol.2

[Gunny]

1. "Grow/Shrink selection", "Feather", "Smooth", "Refine edges" and "Outline" (and I'm sure there are other similar options too) still do not remember the last used parameters - not even in a current session. That's really rather annoying.

2. Another similar thing is a colour picker. I usually prefer picking colours from the current layer but the default setting is "Global", it is document dependent and it does not get saved with the document. The option "Synchronise tools between documents" does not seem to affect this at all (a bug?) so I keep changing that setting over and over again every time I start a new document or load an old one...

I think the colour-picker settings should apply to brush Alt+click too...

3. Another Brush/Colour picker quirk:

Both tools "remember" their own settings of primary and secondary colours (i.e. which one is active).

I often end up painting with a wrong colour because I pick a colour to a primary colour circle, but when I switch to Brush it swaps the colours back to its last settings (which can be different) and I start to paint with the secondary colour.

4. Yet another Colour picker suggestion:

I don't think it was a good idea to keep separate active colours for each open document.

I think it's not very common to edit several images at once. It's more likely that the user is working on a single image and the other open images serve only as a reference.

Now when I need to pick a colour from a different document I have to perform one (un)necessary click to transfer the colour from the small colour picker circle. I prefer having just one active colour for all open documents.

At least there should be an option to synchronize selected colours across all documents.

Hi, I tried to google how to make tools forget the colors I'm using them with. Is there a setting for this I can disable? I found this thread on accident. How can I use a brush and then switch to fill bucket and not have the selected color change to the one remembered by the bucket?

EDIT: Okay, I'm sorry, now I understood these were primary and secondary colors getting selected, not separate colors for each tool!
