Rainstar Paint 0.3.5

Rainstar Paint 0.3.5 adds persistent selection stencils, skew handles and two-click shape placement.

• Canvas selections persist across tool changes. Drawing, fills, brushes, stamps, erasing, shapes, paths and text stay inside the selected region; lasso holes remain protected. Escape deselects.
• Pasted images remain floating overlays and do not restrict painting underneath. Copy and move use the current selected artwork. Undo and Redo retain the selection alongside the edit.
• Four small gold handles skew selected artwork and its mask. Top and bottom handles slide horizontally; side handles slide vertically, keeping the opposite edge fixed. Transparent selected pixels remain paintable after transforming.
• Lines and preset shapes now use click, move, click. The first click anchors a preview; the second places it. Escape or right-click cancels. File → Settings → Lines and shapes retains click, hold, release as a saved option. Freehand tools keep their held gesture.
• Hold Ctrl to draw closed shapes from their center. Circles, stars and regular polygons grow by radius; rectangles and other closed shapes grow symmetrically.
