That however doesn't work for people that use middle button + mouse movement to emulate scroll wheel, which is quite standard for ThinkPad users.

First of all, I would suggest to subscribe to the mailing list (link added below automatically).

And you may not receive the answers (some people answer only to the ML address). What has always bugged me in GIMP (at least on Windows, don't know about Linux) is that you can only scroll the image window as far as the canvas goes. This is an issue, because some tools require us to click outside canvas, e.g. to paint with the edge of the Brush on the very edge of the canvas, or to make selections more easily. A workaround is to zoom out and zoom in, but it's rather annoying to do it that way and not always feasible. There is an other way to scroll out of canvas: with the middle-click panning. I.e. you hold middle-click button on the canvas and move the mouse. Such panning is not locked within the canvas limit and is very often the favorite way of most people to move over the canvas. Can a scrolling margin be provided? This being said, I believe it would be a good idea to have a small out-of-canvas margin, not much because stopping at the edge of your image also has its comfort points, but enough to allow out-of-canvas selections and painting tools to go over a bit.

Middle-mouse click and drag. Or press and hold Space, pan around. ср, 23 окт. 2019 г., 10:32 Adam Jagosz via gimp-gui-list < gimp-gui-list@gnome.org>: > Hi! > > This is my first time interacting with the GIMP community, so, hello! > > What has always bugged me in GIMP (at least on Windows, don't know about > Linux) is that you can only scroll the image window as far as the canvas > goes.

[Gimp-gui] Scrolling past the canvas
Hi! This is my first time interacting with the GIMP community, so, hello! What has always bugged me in GIMP (at least on Windows, don't know about Linux) is that you can only scroll the image window as far as the canvas goes. This is an issue, because some tools require us to click outside canvas, e.g. to paint with the edge of the Brush on the very edge of the canvas, or to make selections more easily. A workaround is to zoom out and zoom in, but it's rather annoying to do it that way and not always feasible. Can a scrolling margin be provided?
