There are no places on the image to store the information you want. An image is made out of pixels - what is freferred as sub-pixels is the ability to fill a pixel partially - not of subdividing a single pixel into more than one shade of gray. Darw with the pencil tool instead - you will notice the difference. What I told you to do is to incresae the resolution of your image, so that you get MORE pixels. That is, if you are working in a 800x600 image, use a 1600x1200 or even a 3200x2400 image to paint on (scaled down to 25%) - Then if the GIMP gives you strange results due to the painting happening on a zoomed out image, you write here, and the GIMP-developers will see if it can be imporoved in the program. > _______________________________________________ > Gimp-user mailing list > Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu > http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
