MyPaint como alternativa Linux a MS Paint
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
MyPaint can replace MS Paint for users who want a free, open‑source painting tool that supports tablets and brush dynamics, but it is not a drop‑in replacement for casual users who only need basic drawing and file compatibility. It is suitable for digital artists, hobbyists who use graphics tablets, or anyone who wants more control over brushes and layers. For simple sketching, text, or quick edits, MS Paint remains more convenient.

Lo que funciona igual
- Both are raster editors that allow drawing with a brush or pencil
- Both support basic shapes and text insertion
- Both can open and save common image formats like BMP, JPEG, PNG, GIF, and TIFF
- Both provide simple cropping and resizing tools
- Both run natively on Linux
Lo que cambia
- MyPaint lacks a built‑in shape tool and advanced selection options; shapes must be drawn manually
- MyPaint does not support a two‑color mode or a simple color picker like MS Paint
- MyPaint’s interface is canvas‑only; it has no toolbar for quick access to tools, which can slow casual workflows
- MyPaint does not provide a built‑in image editor for simple pixel manipulation (e.g., pixel‑by‑pixel editing)
- MyPaint’s export options are limited to PNG, JPEG, OpenRaster, and a few others; it does not natively export to BMP or TIFF
Abrir tus archivos de MS Paint
MyPaint can open BMP, JPEG, GIF, PNG, and TIFF files via the standard image loader. Exporting to BMP or TIFF is not supported directly; you would need to export to PNG or JPEG and then convert with another tool. If you need to preserve MS Paint’s proprietary .BMP format, you can use GIMP or ImageMagick as an intermediate step.
Pasar de MS Paint a MyPaint, paso a paso
- 1. Install MyPaint from your distro’s package manager or Flathub.
- 2. Open your existing image with MyPaint by selecting File → Open and choosing the BMP, JPEG, GIF, PNG, or TIFF file.
- 3. If you need a two‑color mode, use the color picker to select two colors and manually paint; MyPaint does not have a dedicated mode.
- 4. Edit your image using the brush, pencil, or shape tools (draw shapes manually).
- 5. Add text with the Text tool and adjust font/size as needed.
- 6. Save or export the finished image via File → Export as PNG or JPEG; convert to other formats if required.
