Hi Victor,

If I remember correctly, Painter is not strictly necessary. It actually does the very same job as Draw package, just much better. The main difference is that Painter is capable of subpixel precision, has better antialiasing and some SVG support. You can read more about it in the official announcement thread. I think there is even some way to disable it without removing the package from CtrlCore, but I don't remember exactly how... Someone else will have to give you a hint on that, if it is really possible.

TL;DR: If you care more about executable size than looks, you can just drop it Wink

Best regards,
Honza
