In an older version of gimp I was able to set the spacing of a brush (for smudging and such) and I currently have gimp 2.8 but I don't have the option to anymore. How to change the spacing of a brush now?

I've run into two problems using the brush tool:
1. When I use a low opacity to gradually build up highlights in a drawing the opacity seems to skip a few strokes: Nothing is actually happening after a fes brush strokes and then suddenly there's a bright line, nothing inbetween. It looks like i was drawing with 50% opacity even though it was actually 5%. All other option such as pressure sensitivity are turend off.
2. When drawing a straight line with the brushtool, and then zooming in, I can see the individual spots that make up the brushstroke. It looks like brushspacing was on even though it wasn't.

Can I disable brush "spacing" for all brushes, and save the settings?
(For those that don't know: Brush spacing is set to 25% by default for all brushes. Brush spacing makes the brush jump 25% of its size as you move the mouse, no matter how fast or how slow. This is great if you want evenly spaced brush "clicks" to be simulated. However, I want pixel-perfect accuracy with larger brushes, i.e., I don't want the brush to jump by this spacing, so I need to disable this!)

My PSCS brushes are all set to about 12% spacing as default..
When I digitally paint, I have to manually move the spacing down for each one..Is there a way to set the spacing down for a whole set of brushes?
I'm using PS CS2. 'How to make a dotted line brush in Photoshop', it describes how to do this. It shows a brush palette that I can only assume is an older version (attachment 'Palette B.pdf'), because it is showing a spacing slider that mine doesn't (attachment 'Palette A.pdf').

I'm trying to change it to an auburnish color but the brush just stays black when I paint on the canvas. As you can see I did change the color though.
Because brush size slider is really not easy control for tablet pen, Idecided to create some brushes (range from 1x1 to 9x9 ) for daily use.But I found gimp 2.8.4 does not change the brush size when I selectanother brush. How to make 2.8.4 not persist in prior size setting?

When I select a brush/color besides the default, it automatically switches to the default/black when the pen gets close enough to be detected by the tablet.
I was trying painting with gimp and there is a shortcut in gimp to change the size of the brush/opacity my moving the stylus like you can on photoshop or sketchbook pro.

This would be an incredible time-saver for us artists and not very complex. If not I will suggest this feature to the gimo developers.
I need to do some shading work in Gimp, and for this it would be very nice to have a quick way to change my brush size. Luckily there's a note in the gimp docs on how to program the mouse wheel to do this:

My laptop only has a touchpad with a little scroll area on the side, but I can't think of a good reason why this should be any different from a scroll wheel on a real mouse. Unfortunately, though, following the documentation doesn't work.
In fact, as far as I can tell, the input controllers dialog does nothing at all on my system--I've looked at the settings for the all of the 'active controllers,' and none of the current settings there match with the actual behavior of Gimp as far as I can tell. It also worries me that the controller names are so generic--they're listed as 'Main Keyboard' and 'Main Mouse Wheel' rather than mentioning a synaptics touchpad, and my tablet doesn't even seem to be listed.
I am using Gimp 2.6.11 on Ubuntu.
1. original
2. doubled horizontal size of the line
I'm using scatter brush to draw multiple lines with random size and angle(image 1.), and trying to increase only the horizontal size(image 2.), keeping the interval the same. But when I do, the interval is also increased since 'Spacing' option follows the size of the base object. I could adjust and decrease the spacing value, but the problem is, spacing option cannot go below 1%. So if want to increase the line size and maintain the interval, there's no way to do it. expending then scaling could work, but that's not what I want.
When someone has pasted text in from microsoft office (word 2010) to a coreldraw x3 text block, I find the line spacing is in points (pt). I seem to be unable to change this to percentage. I'd like to change it to % so that text block matches my others created in coreldraw where linespacing is in %. Is there a way to change it to % once line spacing has become pt?

The picture here is my Autocad 2012 on the left and on the right is what I get from another company. How can I change my style so the lettering is more spaced out like the one on the right? This is not just for the tolerance box. All my dimensions have a similar problem where the text is not spaced out.
Such as if I make a dimension, it says "R.125" where there is no space between the "R" and ".125"

How to change the line spacing for fonts in IV2010?
Reason I ask is b/c I had to change fonts from RomanS to RomanD, b/c the former font wouldn't print clearly enough for the shop and customer to read it (both in pdf and dwg/dxf).
The problem is, RomanD has DOUBLE SPACING as default, instead of the usual single spacing. I can't get the "Styles" editor to change the spacing in the VIEW LABELS and WELD SYMBOLS.
I'm using the "cross" fill mode trying to overlay some grid on a map. I would like to increase the spacing between the squares it makes but I cannot figure it out.

I've read about:
1) Starting later letters on later frames
2) Incorporating subsequent delay times in the layer names
3) Manipulating the From and To points in the path setup.
I just could not seem to modify the instruction from the "FOLLOW" tut to my situation. See attachments. The jumbled up letters on the first attachment are circled in red.

I'd like to use a grid to snap a lot(!) of small images into a larger(!) one. That works alright.
Problem: the large image has places the small images need to be snapped into, but they are not spaced an integer number of pixels apart. So the grid slowly wanders off the places as I move over the sheet. The places are 127.5 pixels apart (alternately 127 and 128, I guess). I cannot scale the image up, because the image is already 2.7 GB in size and my computer cannot handle the quadrupled size.
Is there a way to make GIMP accept a non-integer width for grid spacing?
It is absolutely ok if GIMP alternately places the grid lines a pixel shorter and a pixel longer.
Edit: I'm using GIMP 2.6.11, could install another version.
When using a hard-edged brush (round in this case), and using Shift+click to draw a continuous segment, the segment isn't perfectly straight at top and bottom. I know this is because of the "spacing" value of the brush, so the question is... can you make a global change for ALL brushes to have a spacing value of 1%?

I know I can select the ones I want to change, but I do not see in the properties window where I can change the spacing. Unless I am overlooking it.

The icon spacing in the toolbox randomly changes its inter iconspacing, see [URL] .........
The only way I can get it back to normal seems to be to close gimp downand restart it
Maybe it has been corrected in 2.8.4 but SUSE haven't offered this intheir repositories.
Is there another setting that I can tweak to restore the inter iconspacing.
There are a few things I just don't get about brush settings. Sometimes it seems my brushes go all wonky.
When I change the settings for 1 brush... say I add some jitter to a smooth brush - then suddenly the other brushes get the same jitter applied to them.
How can I set the brushes so that each brush has a different setting that doesn't change when I change any other brush settings?
p.s. I also don't get why Adobe has you lock a brush by UNlocking it? Seems to me it should be the other way around?
