This sounds like a bug that needs fixing. Is this Intuos? What XFree version? Etc.

Hmm. Why just not have another image as a "scratch paper"? It would be less trouble anyway I think. And you could have it where you want. The border thing sounds like a lot of trouble for little real gain. What comes to the space thing, I'd like to see the hold space&drag -> pan image be implemented in gimp as well as all over Gnome (gnome print for example) It is used pretty all over Mac and Windows, and I dont know why it shouldnt be also for Gimp. I know we pan with mouse button 2, but space-drag is kinda nice too. I need to use illustrator for vector graphics, so I get all confused every time I switch apps :) Best wishes, Tuomas -- .---> tigert@xxxxxxxxxx . |\,/| tigert@xxxxxxxx <-----. +----> www.ximian.com - ()-@@ , tigert.gimp.org <----+ `-----> art director , `--')/ a gimp artist <---'
