Re: [Gimp-user] 2.3.7 lose wacom support?
Hi, Don Koch [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Until recently, I had been using 2.3.3 and I could configure my Wacom tablet. After upgrading(?) to 2.3.7, it no longer recognizes that there are any extended input devices (it looks like the user interface for that changed, too). I didn't see anything in the release notes regarding Wacom support. Has something changed in that area? Nope, nothing has changed in that area. The most likely cause of your problem is that you updated GTK+ and got a version of that library which was compiled without support for XInput.

Re: [Gimp-user] Printing success stories?
Hi, John R. Culleton [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I am evaluating two products to use while waiting for Gimp to adopt the CMYK color model, Scribus and Krita (part of Koffice). Scribus is really a Quark replacement and Krita (inspired in part by Gimp is still in an early stage. The Krita manual says it will do CMYK but my copy doesn't have it yet. It is however very Gimp-ish in look and feel. I hope you are aware that using the CMYK color model is not going to solve your print problems. Actually for most image manipulation needs your source images will be in an RGB color space and it is then recommended to do all the work in RGB and to let the printer driver care about the rest.

Re: [Gimp-user] Selection to Path accuracy
Hi, Adam Cooper [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Anyway, I am trying to create a relatively small (approx 20~30px across) circle. The best way to create a path that represents a perfect circle is probably to import an SVG from a vector editor or to open the Script-Fu console and use something like (gimp-path-import-string 1 ?xml?svgcircle r='20'/svg -1 0 0) Yes, we should definitely add an easier way to do this, especially since all the functionality for basic shapes is already available in GIMP, it is just not exposed in any usable way.

It is part of the 2.3 installers. In order to be able to select it, it might be neccessary to have Python 2.4 and a matching pygtk installed.

This will be fixed in 2.2.11. Yes, we should definitely add an easier way to do this, especially since all the functionality for basic shapes is already available in GIMP, it is just not exposed in any usable way. In CVS head there also is (gimp-vectors-bezier-stroke-new-ellipse ...) which could be used, but arguably the SVG import is still simpler since it immediately creates a path object, which needs to be created manually for -stroke-new-ellipse first. This will not be backported to 2.2.x, you have to wait for 2.4 to see this in a stable release.

[Gimp-user] 2.3.7 needs help finding help
Hi all, I have 2.3.7 running now on my Ubuntu (Breezy) system. I installed it in /opt, hence the latest stable (2.2.8) is still on my system. I have the help subsytem installed (gimp-help-common 2+0.8-3, gimp-helpbrowser 2.2.8-2ubuntu6, gimp-help-en 2+0.8-3), and it works fine with 2.2.8, but 2.3.7 can' t load it.
