Ok there will now be a specific red/cyan (aka red/blue) anaglyphic "3D Glasses" tool, which separates only those colors, and only horizontally... and a separate (pun intended) "Color Separation" tool that can pull out ANY color, and in any direction!

New rainbow painting tool variation. This one stays the same color until you release & click/tap again to start a new line. Maybe someone will find it useful?

Our "TV" Magic tool was always too dim, but some of you use it for an artistic way of darkening pictures, so we're adding a new "bright" variation. Hope that's okay!
