Follow-up Comment #7, bug #13992 (project mypaint): Duplicate: bug #18765
>From comment 1 on that issue, by maxy: The size limitation comes from X11. The alternative is to draw the cursor on the canvas ourselves, see https://gitorious.org/~maxy/mypaint/maxy-experimental/commits/cursor_fun for an experiment with that. This allows to visualize other interesting things like intuos tilt. The main problem is that it is slow; for the large ones the lag can become very irritating while painting. We already use the GPU indirectly through Cairo for zooming/rotating if it is available, but in general the code that displays the canvas is rather slow. You notice when dragging the canvas while zoomed out. If you can figure out a way to get the FPS high enough to draw an interactive cursor even when zoomed out, that would be very welcome. A "cheaper" alternative would to draw the cursor shape on-canvas only while you resize it. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://gna.org/bugs/?13992> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ _______________________________________________ Mypaint-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/mypaint-bugs
