Somewhat OT but ...

Many thousands of years ago ...
(in a galaxy far, far away)
... I had a s/w pgm called "Photfinish" made by "ZSoft."
(circa 1992 I think)

It had a tool and I believe it was called "waterdropper" that would allow you to click on a pixel (area) and the colors would "bleed" outward and blend with the surrounding pixels with no perceptable sharp edges, i.e., no radical color changes between adjacent pixels.

The cursor did NOT have to be moved for the "bleeding" effect to slowly move outwards from the cursor.

The longer you held down the mouse button, the farther out from the center of the cursor the blending effect would be produced.

It produced the same effect as a drop of water placed on a normal ink printed picture on paper.

Does anyone know if this kind of tool is avalable in any of the graphics software available today?

Thanks for any information you might have about this.
