I agree that would be very useful, but it would also be a nightmare to implement from a code perspective in this particular program. Everything in Shamat is predicated on hex positions, and adding arbitrary pixel positions would play havoc with that system. It would also be a real pain to select something you had already drawn freehand and then modify/delete/clone it. I really would have needed to start from a pixel-based perspective instead of grid-based one in order to implement such a thing. Sorry, and I'd love to include it myself, but it's just too different from the rest of the code.
