Hello.
I sometimes use a set of grunge brushes which tile seamlessly. Very good for game textures and other 3d scenes. To fit them to the image currently requires a couple of steps which I'd prefer to simplify:
1. Manually set brush size to image size (this usually applies to square images so the size value on its own is usually enough).
2. Create horizontal and vertical guides at 50% each (or zoom in and be careful). I recently installed a guides plugin which makes this a little easier.
Another option I read about was to set up the grid so that its lines cross at the centre, but that's quite a few steps and some people might want the grid for other uses.
The above may only be 2 steps but I may have several layers with different grunge brushes, and/or be making several images, so those 2 steps can multiply quite quickly. Some repetition will be needed if, between adding grunge brushes, I change the brush size for other things (e.g. eraser, painting, cloning etc).
Does anyone know if there are any addons that could simplify the above process? If not, I'd be happy to raise a feature request on the GNome page for 3.2 (I'm aware that 3.0 is now having just it's existing features tweaked, which makes sense).
