Re: [Gimp-user] stroking path with 1 pixel width brush is semiopaque

You might have noticed that you have full color pixels where the path goes straight across a pixel, but less when the pixel is only touchedm this is due to the antialiasing that's on by default. This will give a fully colored, 1-pixel line: - | x-|---|---|---|---|-x | - This will give a 50% colored, 2-pixel line: - | | | | | | | --x---x-- | | | | | | | - I hope this helped a bit to understand the problem.

Hi, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (2008-03-25 at 2156.34 +0100): This will give a fully colored, 1-pixel line: - | x-|---|---|---|---|-x | - This will give a 50% colored, 2-pixel line: - | | | | | | | --x---x-- | | | | | | | - Add that 50% pixel intensity does not have to match 50% light intensity (gamma), and the problem becomes more obvious.

Thanks, antialiasing was the problem. Appreciate the explanation.
