There is a non-well-known featured on Windows Paint, that I think is Interesting. Although it does not replace the "Line" tool, it can be used to make ocassional lines using the "Pen" tool. The use is simple (if do you got access to Windows Paint, you can try it). First , do you need to push the "Shift" key, and mantaining it pressed, start painting with the pen, try to move it down (or left or right). As you can see, it starts to make a perfect line, even If you move the mouse trying to do a circle. It doesn't change, this is, If you started to make a line down, you can't make a line left from it. You need first to stop pressing the shift key.
I think this feature is interesting to implement in KolourPaint.
Many thanks in advance.
