Feature Request: Mixbox True Pigment Mixing

You could, of course, open source/free the code and it might end up in more apps.

I concur 

This would be amazing in photoshop, wish they had more art related updates like this instead of selection and AI majority of the time.

This is the place they send users to make requests from their feature request site that I linked to in reply to your answer @jane-e 

Whether or not volunteers are the only people reading these forums is not obvious and I suspect that you may be wrong in assuming that to be the case, given that their feature request page linked in my previous reply links to this forum. Of course volunteers can't do the dev or influence the dev team. It seems safe to assume that the dev teams look here too, unless the feature request link page is just a ruse and they don't actually care what users are asking for. Adobe is a lot of things, but I doubt they're that cynical. 

@SarkaSochorova 

The volunteers on this forum do not work for Adobe and cannot make changes to Adobe's API anymore than you can.

Hello Jane, 

I am the co-author of Mixbox. I read your answers in this thread and we can't go through the plugin-related channels you suggest. Mixbox is such a low-level feature - a new blending mode - that it cannot be deployed as a plugin. Photoshop doesn't provide the necessary API to add a new blending mode as a plugin. Mixbox needs to be integrated within the canvas and brush engine so that the colors interact correctly during painting. The only way to get Mixbox into Photoshop is if the Photoshop developers do it. What are the correct channels for us to go through in this case?

Thank you,
Šárka Sochorová

Respectfully @jane-e: 

Anyone else who is wanting to get MixBox into PS, according to https://www.adobe.com/ca/products/wishform.html this is where the feature request happens and this is how I know:

When you go to that page and click on the link for PS, it takes to you to https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem/ct-p/ct-photoshop?page=1&sort=latest_replies&filter=all&lang=all&tabid=ideas and when you search "mixbox" it brings you to this thread. 

Re Fresco:

The one they have listed as adobefresco.uservoice.com is in fact the place that when you click the Fresco link from the wishform.html page i added above, you get taken to. There are several threads to request mixbox there.

I've done quite a bit years ago. Oils, acrylics, pastels, colored pencils, tried everything. I like the feel of oils best, but the drying time is excruciating and I didnlt want to deal with the toxicity. Acrylics dried TOO fast. (I know. We're getting into Goldilocks territory!) I finally settled on pastels and pastel pencils. But, they're a bit messy and I don't have the room.

Enter digital paiintng. It took a little while to get used to it, but I enjoy it. And, the closer I can get to traditional without the mess is good!

Maybe not, but I've done a whole lot of real painting 😉

I was replying to someone about mixing acrylic paint. I didn't reply to them directly.

Rebelle is a painting program. Pretty close to trqditional painting even when not using "real pigment mixing."

Since you've never heard of it, I imagine you don;t do a lot of digital painting.
