Hi all, Has anybody else experienced problems when trying to change the color of individual pixels when creating or editing a graphic? When I try to change the color of individual pixels using the pencil ( with the smallest *point*) the pixel may or may not actually change; sometimes, actually quite often, the pixels are changed in a seemingly random order, substituting the surrounding pixels instead of the one that I clicked on (if I drag the pencil, then blocks of pixels are randomly changed). This also happens when using the eraser tool. It is not an actual problem with The Gimp because if I minimise, then restore the graphic's window then the actual changes made are seen rather than the *apparent* changes as seen when working on the graphic. It would seem then that the problem is a rendering one rather than a bug in The Gimp itself. I have the exact same problem on my laptop (also with Mandrake 9.0) - so it's not a problem with the video card - but never experienced it before using Mandrake 8.2 on either computer.
Maybe I could install The Gimp from source in a directory of it's own away from Mandrake's installation and therefore avoiding the rendering issues - would this solve the problem? If so how do I do it and satisfy all the dependency requirements? cheers, Nigel Ridley.
