Re: [Gimp-user] Wacom pens with rotation supported ?

 Olivier could you pleas tell whether You use this in GNU/Linux or other OS?

I'm using GNU/Linux, Ubuntu distribution. 11.04 until very recently,
and 12.04 for installing the official 2.8 version. I'm not using
Unity, but Gnome.

 I'm considering new tablet, that supports pen rotation but big problem
 is to find something that's both affordable and works with GNU/Linux

Wacom tablets and pens are rather expensive, but reliable and
performant, and well supported within GNU/Linux. In Ubuntu,
Applications - System Tools - System Settings has a Wacom Graphics
Tablet section.

[Gimp-user] Wacom pens with rotation supported ?

2012-05-15 Thread Gwenouille
Thanks Olivier, your help is much appreciated.

Another question from my side:
Can GIMP really manage several wacom pens ? I mean can it recognize them as 
being different and assign different tools/settings to them ?

I have an airbrush and the grip pen and only the grip pen is available. The 
brush works, but they act as one, having the same tools etc. I cannot have 
pencil on the grip pen and airbrush on the airbrush for instance...

Can you ?

PS: I use win 7 and the Wacom Control panel makes the distinction alright.

To my knowledge, this is not presently the case, at least with
GNU/Linux. More a problem of GTK+ than a GIMP problem.

No, I can't. You should ask Alexia Death on the #gimp IRC channel. I
remember she told me about that problem.

Re: [Gimp-user] Resize Pictures to Print

Does anyone know if a picture can be resized to print in a different

and even tried to do it through my printer to no avail!


You can change the image to be any size you want. Don't expect the 
resolution of the image to be maintained if you try to make it larger unless 
your original is a vector based image.


We could help you further if you provided more details about your original 
image (ie. size in pixels), what you are doing when you are trying to print 
it, and why you say you have been unable to do what you want to do.
