Yes, there are some bugs around, and some significant ones when it comes to hotplugging, etc. that need a more unified approach to fix for Windows and OS X too. I've been working on such from the Inkscape, Linux and OS X sides of things, and it would be good to coordinate a bit on the fixing. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

That's a good idea, I'll need multiple pens anyway to see if and how they are properly handled as distinct devices.

I can also send the mail to the GNOME treasurer to trigger the reimbursement for your tablet, if you'd feel weird about requesting the money yourself. Should you feel guilty about withdrawing money for something you may benefit from personally, then I'd suggest that you mentor in a future GSoC and let the mentor org share of the stipend rest in the GIMP funds ;) Regards, Michael -- GRATIS!

OK++ (assuming my opinion carries sufficient weight in such matters) I am all for you obtaining a physical artefact reminding you of continued promises to ensure extended input devices of various kinds continue working as expected. /Ø ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

A small recommendation, get either an artpen or an airbrush with it(its about 100€ extra), or you cant test the wheel bits. I recommend the art pen, because it offers some interesting features you'd miss with airbrush, that is just a regular pen with the wheel on top. -- --Alexia ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
[Gimp-developer] Graphic Tablet Sponsoring
Hi all, in order to get gimp properly running with a tablet again, and in order to make sure GTK3 does what it should together with GIMP, I need a graphics tablet. Since the GIMP account is full of money, and I don't use it for anything else that hacking GIMP, I'd like to get it sponsored. There is no GIMP commitee deciding such things, so please object here, or give an OK if you feel "entitled" to :-) It's a Wacom Intuos4 in size A5, around 300€, since that supports all the stuff we want to support and is not a piece of garbage. ciao, --Mitch ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
