Post subject: | Line/pixel size doesnot correspond with pixel resolution |
GIMP Version: 2.10.18 Operating System: Linux OS Version: XUbuntu 20.04 GIMP Experience: Basic Level List any relevant plug-ins or scripts: none List any ERROR messages you received: no error message Does anyone know what is happening with the following. 1. Make a new drawing with size 40x40 mm. Set in the advanced options the X- an Y-resolution to 1 pixel/mm. 2. Use the pencil and set the size to 1 (brush = 1. pixel) 3. Draw a one pixel dot on the canvas. You have now a square drawing one pixel in size 4. Set size to 2. Again draw a dot but it is now 3 dots in size not 2. Why??? You can do it for 3, 4, 5, 6, etcetera sizes and you will see a very strange behavior. What am I doing wrong?? |

Size of brushes is 1+2*radius. So you cannot have even numbers. |

That is for parametric brushes - something.vbr For pixel art use a .gbr brush. You can make one yourself, 1x1 pix canvas, grayscale, fill with black. Export as a something.gbr or Use the one from the old Gimp 2.6 files pixel.gbr which you will find in /usr/share/gimp/2.0/brushes/gimp-obsolete-files/ Copy that to your Gimp user brushes folder /~/.config/GIMP/2.10/brushes/ Attachment: gbr.jpg [ 79.67 KiB | Viewed 3515 times ] As a pencil that can use the required size(s).
