Summary0005176: Let DR remember the shader in ShaderClipboard after closing
DescriptionSomething I'd appreciate is if DR remembered what was in your ShaderClipboard in your previous DR session (in other words, the texture that gets applied when you draw a new brush or ctrl + mmb to paste onto a brush surface/patch).

Currently when you start DR -> open a map -> start drawing a brush it'll be textured with _default aka "shader not found". If you then apply a real texture its scale will be far too small, because it seems "_default" has a very different texture scale than what's typical for TDM textures. So my routine every time I start DR & open a map is to copy the texture from the first brush I see.

Should this be tied to the map you're working on, or DarkRadiant as a whole?

Having thought about it, I figured I'd post a thread in the forums since I don't see a clearly preferable answer.

Well, talk about overwhelming feedback XD
I think it's up to you to decide what it should be associated with. If we need a tie-breaker, storing it DR-wide is the slightly easier thing to do, from a coding perspective.

Come to think of it, the best would likely be to make it map-specific as that'd most facilitate picking up where one has left off.
For brand-new maps the first shader could continue being _default, but it'd be nice to (in a separate ticket) adjust _default in such a way that the scale will be somewhat ok when it gets replaced by a real material.

Alright then :)

Just tested this: the last shader from the previous session is indeed in the ShaderClipboard now when I start a new session, but when I draw a brush or create a patch it's still textured with _default.

Right, should be fixed in source now.
