Milton is an open source application that lets you Just Paint.
There are no pixels, you can paint with (almost) infinite detail. It feels raster-based but it works with vectors. It is not an image editor. It is not a vector graphics editor. It is a program that lets you draw, sketch and paint. There is no save button, your work is persistent with unlimited undo.
Milton is not an image editor or a vector graphics editor. It's a program that lets you draw, sketch and paint.
If the GUI makes something not-obvious, please create a github issue!
It's very helpful to drag the mouse (or pen) while pressing space
to pan the
canvas. Also, switching between the brush and the eraser with b
and e
.
You can change the brush size with [
and ]
and control the transparency
with the number keys.

Milton is Windows only at the moment. Linux and OSX support is intended for the future, but I don't know when that will come.
Requirements: VS2015. Compiling with other versions of Visual Studio will
probably not work, since Milton provides a pre-compiled SDL.lib. If you want to
use another version of Visual Studio, you will need to compile SDL and copy
SDL.lib to the build
directory.
To build:
Run cmd.exe
and type the following
scripts\vcvars.bat
build.bat
Milton will be compiled to build\Milton.exe
Porting in progress.
Build it with make
and run it with build/milton
. You need to install the SDL libraries (libsdl2-dev
on Ubuntu).
No OSX support at the moment.
