No as explained by Sven You may use GURM (a python plugin) to separate brush (pattern gradients) in sets and chose which load Next Gimp should allow tagging resources considere On Wed, 2009-12-30 at 22:37 +0100, Cedric Gemy wrote: Just put the .abr file in your $HOME/.gimp-2.6/brushes.

Some brushes didn`t work at all anymore, especially when a pen tablet was used. With mouse it was faster, but still not good. After unchecking show brush outline in the preferences-image windows section the problem was gone. -- wschweizer (via gimpusers.com) ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
