adjustable paint brush and eraser tool

Some great ideas for some tools. If you could change the size of the paint brush. And if there was an eraser tool.
You can change the size of the brush, there's a drop down menu there that determines the size of the lines you draw. Pretty handy if you're making a bare bones type of map. As for the eraser tool, I agree. Right now, I'm resorting to using the paintbrush with a white color selected, but it doesn't do the same as just having an eraser tool.
For one, I'd like enabling pressure sensitivity to the paint brush in Roll20. I know at least other VTT with this feature, and it allows to draw pretty decent pictures on the fly if you have a drawing tablet --Wacom or not. It's cool for adding new features and good quality sketches to already created images or maps, or blank spaces in the tab.
Yes please to the eraser tool. Also could we have a wider range of brush sizes? The thickest available brush is still very small. I'd also like a fill tool to fill in hollow shapes. The shape tool is ok for squares and circles but what if I want to draw a river or a winding path?
I would just like to know if we're getting the rectangle tool back?
@Jon Thurtell : You can fill a freehand hollow shape. First draw it with the draw tool, being careful to make sure it is a closed figure. Then select it using the drawing select tool and change its fill from transparent (grey and white checquered) to any colour from the pop-up palette.
Wow, that's really inconvenient. But thanks for the information.
If you think that is inconvenient, try making an index card with writing on it.
Until recently I was able to draw freehand and as long as I had any color selected in the fill box it would fill the drawing once I finished. Now I have to use the "work around" you described...was this an intentional change?

Now I have to use the "work around" you described...was this an intentional change? Actually, I just pushed out an update that should have fixed this. Let me know if it doesn't work still for you or if you encounter any other issues with the drawing tool! Thanks!
Works again! Thanks for the quick response;-)
