GIMP :: Set Brush Size For Paint Brush And Eraser Separately?

Jul 5, 2012

I'm using a tablet with gimp and I want to be able to set the brush size for the paint brush and also for the eraser, separately. What happens now is that I'll set the paintbrush size to 10px, paint for a little while, turn the pen over to erase and the eraser will now be at 10px. So I'll adjust the eraser size to something like 50px, erase, turn over, and now the paintbrush is at 50px. Grrrrrrr... I tried creating new brushes for both the paintbrush and the eraser, but there's no brush size option. This is my first time using gimp so I'm probably missing something.

GIMP :: 2.6.12 - Wacom Eraser Works Like Brush Not Eraser?

Jan 25, 2014

I'm using a Wacom Intuos2 tablet with GIMP 2.6.12, and it works fine except as the subject says, the eraser works like a brush. In Photoshop, I don't recall exactly what it does, but I believe switching to the eraser (meaning flipping the pen over to the "eraser" side" switches from the foreground color to the background color, so that it effectively works like an eraser.

How can I do that, or something similar, in GIMP? I've searched everywhere and most of the posts have to do with getting the tablet recognized (check) and implementing pressure (check).

This is a sample of how the tool is not using the entire diameter. This could be either erasing or painting a color.

Paint.NET :: Duplicating Layers And Using Eraser Or Brush To Give Jagged Look?

Apr 30, 2011

I have searched google, PDN, and hades for a solution.

I am fairly new to PDN but love it so far.

I am creating a logo for my company and wanted to "cut" an object in half and place a saw blade in the middle (to give to appearance that it was cut). I thought about duplicating the layers, placing them apart and using the eraser or brush to give a jagged look?

Corel PHOTO-PAINT X5 :: Eraser And Brush Mask Tool Showing Icon Instead Of Circle Or Square

Mar 1, 2013

I must have fat fingered something and I now when I click on the Eraser Tool or the Brush Mask Tool instead of getting a circle or square, I get and icon of the tool instead.  They still work but they're harder to use without seeing the circle or square depending on what's selected.  I've been using Corel for many years and never had this happen and I can't figure out how to switch back.

Photoshop :: Brush Size Is Smaller Than Circle That Represents The Brush

Dec 19, 2012

I have contacted Adobe about issues with Photoshop brushes recently.  My issue is that the brush size is smaller than the circle that represents the brush.  In other words, when I hoover over the area that I want to paint or erase with the circle and then click, the painted or erased area is smaller that the circle.  It's really frustrating when fine tuning an image, you never know how close you are to what you want to correct.  This is only visible when you zoom in quit a bit.  I worked with an Adobe tech for over an hour and he could not simulate the problem.  Then he finally asked if I was using a retina display, (he was not).

Photoshop :: Unable To Paint 1 Pixel Brush Line (with Brush Not Pencil)

May 28, 2013

you can see what i mean in the following picture examples.
 
Selecting a brush (any 1 pixel) brush
 
[URL]........

shows my selection . Drawing a straight line
 
[URL]........
 
Zooming in to the line (600%) you can see i can draw a marquee through half of it ...
 
[URL].........
 
No matter what 1 single pixel brush i use this will happen... no matter which computer i use cs6 on and different copies of the installation.   Anyway have any insight into this?  frankly... it's somewhat limiting that i can't use the brush for stroking a shape if i need a pixel line and yet soft curves that a pencil won't get you.

GIMP :: How To Save Brush Size

Sep 7, 2013

I am having a bit of trouble with brush sizes compared to when I used photoshop. Using photoshop I could just click on a new brush size and shape as I was drawing. In GIMP it looks like one has to manipulate the size every time. And if you're to say use the eraser tool, it has to be manipulated to a desired size and then all over again to go back to drawing. Is there a way to save brush sizes and then just merely click to continue on?

GIMP :: Brush Size Speed

Aug 30, 2013

Well i've, been a gimp user since quite a time now, and always loved it over photostop for doing all my work except for the one i love most, and thats digital painting. My problem is the scaling of the brushes, ive tried everthing but at the end i don't feel satisfied with the behavior of how gimp scales the brushes pixel per pixel at time, its very slow working on large canvas, i know there's the scale more shortcut but its not quite precise and swapping between the normal scale shortcut with the scale more is a pain in the ass, at least for me because i barely use the keyboard so i rely heavily on my intuos 4 medium tablet using the touch ring for scaling, so my questions are:

theres no way to have a similar brush scale behavior similar to the one in photoshop ? like it doesnt matter if im very zoomed in or very zoomed out, the brush scales fast and precise

I dont remember where i read about this other shortcut called increase brush size relative, that is like a more precise way to scale the brush size but my problem is why it does nothing after assigning a key to it ? well it does, on the bottom where zoom percentage is located,to the right ive seen that it shows the selected tool, and when i click the assigned key to the command i said before it shows Brush Angel 0.00. why? im not trying to rotate the brush im trying to scale it, maybe is a bug i dont know.

GIMP :: Brush Size Shortcut?

Apr 22, 2013

I was wondering if there is a shortcut for the brush size on gimp.

When I use photoshop with my tablet I can use my secondary of my pen button to quickly change size. But in gimp for mac it's a nightmare (secondary button doesn't acces brush settings) to change quickly brush sizes. Specially as a painter.

Is there any shortcut for gimp (MAC) ?

GIMP :: Brush Size Between Tools

Jun 13, 2012

I'm having an issue when I go back and forth between my paint brush tool and my eraser tool. Ever since I got 2.8 installed, the brush size is the same for all tools. When I had 2.6, if I was working with my paint brush and had it at a small brush size, then turned my pen over to the eraser and I would have that tool's brush size to be much bigger. I wouldn't have to keep on adjusting the size every time I flipped my pen. Ever since I got 2.8, I've had to keep on adjusting the brush size because the brush size stays the same, and doens't stay set for each tool. I'm using windows 7, am using an intous4 tablet and pen, had installed the latest wacom update, the latest gimp obviously with what I believe to be the binary and source code.

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.

Photoshop :: Eraser And Brush Are Not Working Correctly

Dec 28, 2012

For some reason photoshop at times will only let me erase or draw within the confines of a specific layer. It seems to happen randomly without me accidently hitting a hotkey of some sort.
 
For instance in the image below, I was drawing and randomly I noticed I could no longer draw. It would only let me use the brush/erase tool within the confines of the line work I had already established. The only way I have been able to correct this so far is to completely restart photoshop.

Photoshop :: Effecting Selection With Eraser Or Brush

Jun 22, 2013

what I'm trying to do is make a selection and, with either the paintbrush or eraser, put a single coat of the selected brush texture on that entire selection.
 
I've downloaded some really great brush sets and I want to apply one of them to the whole canvas as if I've painstakingly gone over the whole canvas and applied one coat of the paint brush or eraser. All the Google explanations refer to the smart brush which I can't seem to find. Perhaps its no longer in CS6?
 
I'm using a Mac Pro with OSX 10.6.8 & PS CS6.

GIMP :: Unable To Configure Mouse Wheel To Change Brush Size

Jun 4, 2011

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:

[URL] .....

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.
