Mcreator paint editor selection tool

The selection tool in the paint editor of Mcreator is basically useless.

You can't move the selected area around, it only prevents you from drawing out of the selected area. So adding more functionality like resize, move around, rotate, mirror, duplicate and copy/paste will make the selection tool actually useful and save my life when creating textures.

Since also Ms-Paint doesn't let you zoom in to create precise textures or small textures which just isn't nice to have. Also Paint 3D is discontinued, meaning it's not gonna be updated anymore, and is removed from the Microsoft store which is not convenient.

Also I believe if these features are added, they wont need to keep being updated like procedures and elements.

Then you can also resize them,

the only things you can't do is rotate and mirror.

 

but if you want to do more advanced image editing GIMP is a great tool
