Hi, it would have helped a lot if you had changed the subject of your mail, since apparently you have changed the topic completely. Also your mail should have better been send to the gimp-user list. Please do that next time you have questions on using GIMP.

Or am I missing something again? Are you sure you are using GIMP 2.4? We changed the paint tool behavior to not auto-scroll when the brush tip hits the edge of the view. What you are describing sounds like the behavior of GIMP 2.2.
