Altoghether this ends up making the Free Select Tool a very versatile, powerful and easy-to-use selection tool. Brush dynamics let you map different brush parameters, commonly at least size and opacity, to one or more of three input dynamics: pressure, velocity and random.
Velocity and random are usable with a mouse. The Ink tool, that supported velocity before, has been overhauled and now handles velocity-dependent painting much better. Brush dynamics have enabled a new feature in stroking paths.
What this means is that when your stroke is being painted by GIMP , it tells the brush that its pressure and velocity are varying along the length of the stroke. Pressure starts with zero, ramps up to full pressure and then ramps down again to no pressure.
Velocity starts from zero and ramps up to full speed by the end of the stroke. Important progress towards high bit-depth and non-destructive editing in GIMP has been made.
