Now that the Eraser tool is in SVN for quite some time, what do people think of it? Is it useful? In what mode do you use it, if at all?
I must admit I have problems with it.
1. It erases destructively. If it used booloops LPE, that would be a whole different story. 2. It messes up with erased region bringing it back on subsequent strokes. E.g. you draw over a region, and it disappears. Then you start stroking close to that region, touching it a bit and voila --- the regions is back. That's quite confusing. 3. It doesn't quite work with 3D boxes (Tweak tool is unpredictable there too, though).
But. Eraser tool is a great metaphor for wacom users. The point is that you turn a stylus up side down and it works as eraser.
