 Any ideas how to get iscan working with gimp.

Xsane works for me. Perhaps you could use it instead. I have Slackware Linux 
11.

Re: [Gimp-user] paint tools and autoscroll

2006-12-04 Thread Ben Walker
I agree that normally autoscroll is not generally appropriate for 
painting.  For drawing lines however, it could be very useful, if one 
knows exactly where one wants to begin and end a line.  I do this type 
of graphic work all the time for web design, and normally have to do the 
line piecemeal as I often need to zoom in to place the line accurately.

You are talking about straight line, right? Then this can be handled by 
multiple views.

What is the difference between painting and drawing, btw? The paint tools don't 
auto-scroll in draw mode anyway (this is what you get by holding shift (aka 
how to draw straight lines)).

Maybe you could explain in more detail how you work with scrolling to draw 
lines?

HTH,
Michael
