    4.2.1 - Pen pressure, art-window painter

    • Pen pressure (Wacom / any Windows Ink tablet) - Tools > Pen: Pressure -> colour maps light..hard press onto the palette's colours 0..3 (Reverse flips it), Pressure -> brush size grows a round brush from 1 px to a 6 px circle. The eraser end paints colour 0. Off by default; the pen always works as a mouse. Needs Windows 8+ with Windows Ink enabled for the app in the tablet driver.
    • CGB / DMG preview - a switch in the PALETTES panel shows every palette in the original Game Boy's 4 greens (colour 0..3 = #071821 #306850 #86C06C #E0F8CF, dark to light) across all canvases, the tile browser and PNG exports. View only: your colour palettes and data exports are untouched; switch back any time.
    • Art Manager / Art Editor - art windows are split like screens: the manager (F8) lists and creates/renames/duplicates/deletes windows, the editor (F7) gives the canvas the full width. In the PROJECT tree a bank opens the manager, a window opens the editor.
    • Art windows - Painter button with the same size / Turn Off dialog as the Screen Designer; span selector reads Single bank / Double bank; switching a window's bank updates the PROJECT tree and window list; palette selector in the drawer shows all four colours.
