Quoting from your IRC log:
10:40 <@carol> and there is also a big difference between the brush
stroking in 2.1 and in 2.0
10:42 <@nomis> I don't see a real difference between 2.0 and 2.1 here.
10:42 <@nomis> carol: maybe you've been tricked a bit by the problem
that 2.0 doesn't always use the brush selected in the
brush dialog for stroking. Make sure that you select the
paint tool and the proper brush before stroking the
selection.
10:44 <@nomis> (I cannot explain the different width of the stroke
otherwise)
(Ok, the wording could have been clearer)
[...]
10:50 <@carol> nomis: not only did i make certain that i selected the
proper brush before stroking. i made certain that the
proper brush was selected before opening the dialog even
10:50 <@nomis> carol: switch to the paintbrush before stroking.
Apparently you missed that.
Bye,
Simon
