Select Mode (screen maps the tablet rectangle to the entire screen; window maps it to the Gimp canvas window) Here I see something odd - and maybe this helps solving the problem. If I disable a device, the device is removed from the list of available devices but it still works - but only as a pointer with pressure=max or pressure=off, i.e. like a mouse. And the mode Window and Screen does not matter where I can use the device.

Now when I am going to use Gimp it also sees the movement and it sees the different tools (i.e. eraser and pen) but it nearly never sees the pressure. Often folks forget to turn XInput on. They have windowing systems that automagically convert pressure tablet events into plain old X-Y mouse events, throwing pressure and tilt evaluators away. To ask for unadulterated tablet events right-mouse-button-Dialogs-Input Devices... Select wacom Device Select Mode (screen maps the tablet rectangle to the entire screen; window maps it to the Gimp canvas window) Many Gimpers use Linux and the XFree86 X-Window system and GTK+ has built-in prejuduces for this combination. This environment has tablet drivers that pack the valuators in X-Y-Pressure-X_Tilt-Y_Tilt order. Your environment may vary from this ordering. The Axis tab allows you to experiment with this ordering. X Y are almost universally first, but the remaining parameters can vary. These options not offered? No options offered? Check if the tablet is properly configured for XInput devices. You will likely have to look at Wacom and your X Window system (Or Windows literature -- you've given no hint about your hardware) Possibly your GTK+ package was not built with XInput enabled. Look in the config.status for a line like --with-xinput=xfree (options: xfree | xid) As anybody a idea what this might be? Those are mine. Hope they are of some help.

[Gimp-user] Wacom works but Gimp misses pressure
Hi there ! I have installed a Wacom Intuos tablet on my machine. I have tested the installation with the little xinput tool and I see X/Y movements and pressure and tilt values. All values are changing as I expect them to do. Now when I am going to use Gimp it also sees the movement and it sees the different tools (i.e. eraser and pen) but it nearly never sees the pressure. This means that I am pressing the pen until it breaks but Gimp still says that I am just moving the pen without touching the board. Only sometimes it suddenly sees the pressure and then it works until I lift the pen and the pressure gets back to 0 after that no pressure is seen for a long time. As anybody a idea what this might be? Bye Michael Guse ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
