[Gimp-developer] "Diagonal neighbors" option for fuzzy-select and paint-bucket tools

[Ell <ell_se yahoo com>]

Hi, Gimpers!

I have a small patchset that I wonder if might be of interest. It adds a
"diagonal neighbors" option to the fuzzy-select and paint-bucket tools.
When activated, the tools consider diagonally neighboring pixels as
connected when calculating the affected area. In other words, instead of
just looking at the four orthogonal neighbors of each pixel, they look
at all eight neighbors. This comes in handy when working with thin lines
and curves, as shown in http://i.imgur.com/fLDUlEf.png.

Any takers?
