[TRACKING] tablet and brush system improvements
Last modified: 2018-05-24 10:57:36 UTC
I am putting this here to keep track of brush and tablet bugs and ehancements. I want to use it to keep track of ideas about the brushes and painting tools. This is something I want to work on in the future (after some more gegl stuff is done).
Wouldn't it be better to track the brush- and the tablet-related stuff in two separate meta bug reports? Some changes to the brushes (such as the history brush in bug #74554 or the healing brushes in bug #109801) are totally independent of the tablet support, while some other bug reports related to the tablet usage outside of the image window (bug #115774) are not related to the brushes at all.
I was wondering the same thing.
Ahh, well, my original concept for this was really to track brush changes, and tablet bugs that affected how the brushes were used. Basically because the tablet, since it is the most complicated input device we support, puts the most strain on the brush drawing system, and so enhancements related to how the tablet should behave are closly related to enhancements to the brush and tool system. I don't think my summary really reflected that. On the other hand, if someone is changing the brush and tablet system a lot, it would be useful to fix other bugs while he/she is at it. I was thinking of this as a task list for things to implement in a new/improved tablet and brush system (which would probably be very closely related. eg. there would be things in the brush system for supporting features only in the tablets).
closing it as unused. ITs been here doing nothing for 5 years.
oops... Sorry. got deps...

[Tablet Bug] Well if this is still working... I got one for you. [This kind of thread, I believe, should be on the top of the list] Tested on Windows 7 Pro, GIMP 2.6.6 and 2.6.10. - Tablet: Genius Mouse & Pen 12x9 with the new drivers. -> Open GIMP -> Create or open a new image -> Use your tablet's pen and roll it over the image Done, you'll notice that GIMP catches the X position with a negative offscreen value. Also, when you move it side to side, you'll notice that does not varies as expected. I've uploaded 2 examples Using a 640 x 400 new image. One with the pen right on the lower left corner and the other on the lower right corner of the image.

I have the same problem but for me it seems to be with all images so even more important that it gets sorted.
I've placed bounty 30$ to bug 74554 that blocks this one. Hope it will get fixed. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74554
