I'm running GIMP 2.2.10 on XP. I don't think it is a device problem on account of the fact that I have duplicated my problem with both my mouse and tablet, as well as on other machines. I'm surprised that no one else has run into this. Can anyone duplicate my problem? Just draw a circle or arc with a paintbrush really quickly and you will VERY clearly see that it is comprised of strait lines. I scoured the rest of the *rc files without seeing anything of promise.

It looks like the mousedriver gets stressed, and thus only gives you a few points. (Polling to slow) Either that or you and your mouse is way to fast.. :) Does the same problem occur if you draw the circle slower? Does the same problem occur in another drawing program? Do you experience jerky movement elsewhere? -- /Rikard - email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] web : http://www.rikjoh.com mob : +46 (0)736 19 76 25 Public PGP fingerprint 15 28 DF 78 67 98 B2 16 1F D3 FD C5 59 D4 B6 78 46 1C EE 56 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

It looks like your system isn't reading all the mouse positions, only getting some of the mouse motion events. There's a configuration option in the gimprc man page that might be related: | (perfect-mouse yes) | |When enabled, the X server is queried for the mouse's current |position on each motion event, rather than relying on the posi- |tion hint. This means painting with large brushes should be |more accurate, but it may be slower. Perversely, on some X |servers enabling this option results in faster painting. Possi- |ble values are yes and no. I don't remember whether you said what platform you were on, but it might be worth adding a line to your gimprc (that's a text file located in your GIMP profile directory -- just edit it when gimp is not running, and add the line) and try both settings to see if one of them makes it better. ...Akkana ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
