DRAW is a pixel art editor written in QB64PE that can export images as sourcecode

Current release: v1.4.1

• Brush - Continuous freehand painting with adjustable size (1-50px) and shape (circle/square)
• Dot - Single-pixel stamp tool (click to place, no drag painting)
• Line - Draw straight lines with brush size/shape, real-time thick preview, angle snapping; while dragging press Right/Left to add/remove radial spokes from the midpoint (up to 16)
• Rectangle - Draw outlined or filled rectangles with brush size/shape; filled mode supports custom brush tiled fill and drawer paint modes with interactive Fill Adjustment (F8); while dragging press Right/Left to add/remove column dividers and Down/Up for row dividers (up to 32 per axis, creating an interior grid)
• Ellipse - Draw outlined or filled ellipses/circles with brush size/shape; filled mode supports custom brush tiled fill and drawer paint modes with interactive Fill Adjustment (F8); while dragging press Right/Left to add/remove radial spokes and Down/Up for concentric inner rings (up to 16 each)
• Polygon - Draw outlined or filled multi-point polygons with brush size/shape, angle snapping; filled mode supports custom brush tiled fill and drawer paint modes with interactive Fill Adjustment (F8)
• Bezier (Q) - Draw cubic bezier curves: click to drop corner anchors, click+drag to drop smooth anchors with shaped handles; H toggles handle visualisation while editing, Backspace removes the last anchor, Enter commits, Escape cancels
• Smart Shapes - Parametric shape group accessed via the toolbar Smart Shapes flyout (long-press the toolbar button to choose a sub-tool). Live drag-time arrow-key tweaks for every parameter. Sub-tools: Polygon (n-gon / star with adjustable point depth), Pie / Donut (with hole percentage and segment count), Rounded Rect, Tab, Pill, Pac-Man (mouth-angle), 3D Dice (D4/D6/D8/D10/D12/D20 with wireframe or solid mode — left-click for wireframe in FG colour, right-click for solid mode that fills faces with BG colour and overlays the wireframe in FG colour), Bevel Rect, Arrow (adjustable stem), and 3D Text (extruded text with live shading)
• Expanded Smart Shapes — New sub-tools, live drag-time arrow-key tweaks for every parameter, 3D Dice (D4/D6/D8/D10/D12/D20), and 3D Text (extruded, shaded, font-selectable) with improved snapping and tooltips.

Hold SPACE while dragging any shape tool (Line, Rectangle, Ellipse, Polygon, Smart Shapes) to temporarily reposition the in-progress shape with the mouse, instead of resizing it. Release SPACE to resume resizing from the new anchor. Grid snap is honored. (Photoshop-style move-during-drag.)

• Spray - Spray paint with brush-shaped nozzle tips, radius doubles per brush size level, custom brush stamp support, SHIFT axis constraint, circle preview
• Picker - Color sampling/eyedropper with a cursor-adjacent loupe overlay that shows RGB and hex values; hold ALT with any tool for temporary picker; ALT+left picks FG, ALT+right picks BG
• Marquee - Selection tools: Rectangle, Freehand, Polygon, Ellipse — each with a distinct crosshair cursor; Ctrl+Arrow lifts and nudges content within the selection (Photoshop-style), Ctrl+Alt+Arrow clones content; drag any full edge of an existing selection to resize from that side (not just corner handles); Ctrl+H hides/shows the marching ants selection overlay without deselecting
• Magic Wand - Select contiguous same-color pixels with dedicated crosshair cursor; Hold F+click to flood fill contiguous pixels with FG color; Hold E+click to flood erase to transparent; Hold W+click to select from merged (all visible layers)
• Move - Transform and position selected content with arrow keys, undo support, and ALT+drag clone stamping
• Transform - Universal flip H/V, rotate 90° CW/CCW, scale ±50% — works on layers, selections, or floating moves from any tool; Edit → TRANSFORM... opens an interactive on-canvas bounding-box overlay with five modes: Scale (Shift=lock aspect), Rotate (Shift=15° snap), Shear, Distort, and Perspective (Shift=wall projection); overlay frame and handle colours are fully themeable; previous tool is restored on apply/cancel
• Pan - Dedicated canvas panning tool (hand)
• Zoom - Click to zoom in, Alt+click to zoom out, drag to zoom region
• Clipboard - Copy/Cut/Paste selections (Ctrl+C/X/V), Merged copy (Ctrl+Shift+C), Clear selection (Ctrl+E); mask-aware operations for magic wand and non-rectangular selections
• Text - Text entry tool with text layers, font properties bar (VGA/Tiny5/custom TTF/OTF/bitmap/color bitmap fonts), rich per-character formatting (bold/italic/underline/strikethrough/outline/shadow), per-character FG/BG colors, cursor navigation, selection (including double/triple/quad-click for word/line/all), clipboard, auto-wrap, and sound feedback; text-local undo/redo (Ctrl+Z/Y within text mode, up to 128 states); style presets (save/load/update/delete named text styles); style auto-sync — toolbar formatting controls update live to reflect the style of the character at the cursor as you navigate; text layers persist in DRW files with full undo/redo support; click existing text layers to re-edit; Character Mode for ANSI/ASCII art with PabloDraw-style virtual cursor navigation, F1-F12 block character shortcuts, and font stickiness; Color Bitmap Fonts (CBF) — DPaint-style .bmp spritesheet fonts that preserve original pixel colors (24 bundled fonts)
• Character Map - Dockable 16×16 glyph panel (Ctrl+M) showing all 256 font characters with hover/select/flash states; supports bitmap font rendering (Fontaption, PSF, BDF formats); click glyphs to insert or stamp as custom brush; Alt+U picks FG/BG colors from character under cursor; character grid overlay with snap-to-grid for precise text art alignment

DRAW can be launched with a file argument to automatically load an image or project:

# Load a DRAW project file
./DRAW.run myproject.draw

# Load an image file (PNG, BMP, JPG, GIF)
./DRAW.run image.png

# File paths with spaces need quotes
./DRAW.run "path/to/my image.png"

Supported formats:

• .draw - DRAW project files (preserves layers, blend modes, palette, tool states)
• .png, .bmp, .jpg, .jpeg, .gif - Image files (loads into current layer)

# Use a specific config file
./DRAW.run --config DRAW.macOS.cfg

# Short form
./DRAW.run -c DRAW.linux.cfg

# Upgrade an existing config with new default settings
./DRAW.run --config-upgrade

# Upgrade a specific config file
./DRAW.run -c DRAW.macOS.cfg --config-upgrade

# Combine with a project file
./DRAW.run -c DRAW.macOS.cfg myproject.draw

DRAW automatically detects the operating system and looks for a platform-specific config file before falling back to DRAW.cfg:

Priority order: --config argument > OS-specific config > DRAW.cfg

This allows you to maintain separate configurations per platform (e.g., different display scales, toolbar sizes) while sharing the same project directory across platforms.

On first launch (or when no config file exists), DRAW auto-detects optimal settings:

• Display scale — Targets 90% of desktop, picks highest integer scale up to 4x where the viewport fits (manual override via DISPLAY_SCALE supports up to 8x)
• Toolbar scale — Calculated from viewport height (>=800px=4x, >=600px=3x, >=400px=2x, else 1x)
• Screen dimensions — Viewport = 90% of desktop ÷ scale, rounded to even pixels
• All auto-detected values are saved to the config file for consistent subsequent launches

qb64pe -w -x -o DRAW.run DRAW.BAS

Install scripts are in the INSTALL/ directory. Each platform has an installer that registers .draw file associations, installs app icons, and creates launcher entries.

chmod +x INSTALL/install-linux.sh
INSTALL/install-linux.sh

Installs a .desktop launcher, registers the application/x-draw-project MIME type for .draw files, and installs icons into the hicolor theme. To uninstall:

INSTALL/install-linux.sh --uninstall

Right-click INSTALL\install-windows.cmd and select Run as administrator (or run from an elevated command prompt). Registers the .draw file association in the registry with the DRAW icon and adds a Start Menu shortcut. To uninstall:

INSTALL\install-windows.cmd /uninstall

Download DRAW-osx-x64.tar.gz from Releases, then run the install script (or double-click it in Finder):

chmod +x INSTALL/install-mac.command
INSTALL/install-mac.command
