Re: [Gimp-user] Gimp 2.10: bush default size
Personally, I'd think the idea behind the "Link" buttons is that any changes you make to the brush settings in the Tool Options will be reflected in the brush file (as if you'd made those changes in the Brush Editor) and, thus, when you pick that brush again it will have the same settings you left it at the last time. HOWEVER, this does not seem to be the case at all (nor is it helped by the built-in brushes being read-only) so essentially, the "Link" button is just an "auto-revert" function, which I cannot see any practical use for currently and have to wonder why someone thought it should be enabled by default. (anyone...?) Just turn it OFF. -- Stratadrake strata_ran...@hotmail.com Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth.

Hold on, this is apparently a new feature not a bug. There's a new set of buttons in the toolboxes called "link to brush default" (next to the "reset to native size" buttons) and these are on by default. Turn it off and you should be good to go. -- Stratadrake strata_ran...@hotmail.com Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth.

I have just written a script to set the brush size. Put the script in your personal scripts folder. The first time it is run (each GIMP session) it offers 15 as the default brush size - if you want a different default size just edit the 15 in line 40 to the value of your choice. The script should appear in "Filters/Set Brush Size/Set Brush Size" As I said above pressing Ctrl-F will simply repeat the script and set a new brush to the size last set by the script. Changing Ctrl-F to a single keypress would speed things. (this does assume that you aren't running other scripts in the mean time. If you are you could assign a short-cut to the Set Brush Size script - use the short cut, press Enter and you will have the last brush size that you set. To set a different brush size for the script simply re-run it.

In 2.8, Gimp kept the current brush size when you switched between brushes. In 2.10, whenever you switch to a different brush, it changes the size to the default size for that brush (51 for the basic round brushes). This is absolutely never the size I want. Can I do either of the following: -Change this setting so that it keeps the current brush size when you switch brushes, as it did in 2.8. -Barring that, change the default brush size. This must be for ALL brushes--I can't use the brush editor to change them individually, as I have over 500 brushes. I need to do one of these or else I'll have to revert back to 2.8. I don't have time to continually change back my brush size. -- katz (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
