Say... is it only in Ubuntu that the -Default- settings include [ and ] for brush resize? Because that's what I do right now: use the shortcuts to resize until I get the right size. I visually decide if the size is right thanks to the outline. I don't need to click on a selection, move to the canvas to see if the size is right, then move back to the selections to choose one of another size. > I have a weird obsession.

Well, most professional-grade artists and photographers work with images that are much bigger than something you can just put online. They only resize at the end. > So I don't need a 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, or 19 > pixel fuzzy circle, but I need one that is around 30 > pixels wide.

I was actually thinking along the lines of choosing from a drop down which brush you need for a script (script message: please choose a round-ish brush of about x pixels). It'd offer more possibilities for effects too (by selecting different brushes available). Though being able to put them in another folder is fine. _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
