I work only on linux, and in this box I've two GIMP, the stable 2.8.14 (otto ppa) and and the 2.9 devel (last git master). My box is ubuntu gnome 14.04.2 - 64-bit. Memory 8Gb, Intel® Core™ i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz × 4, Gallium 0.4 on AMD CAICOS. The 2.9 first of the patch of Michael Henning in August 11, was working well with the rulers. The 2.8.14 stable - ppa otto, is working well. git log on my 2.9 git master > commit 72617e42b426e6788c075539a20df7365d2cf102 Author: Michael Henning <drawoc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Aug 11 16:20:59 2015 -0400 Bug 736411 - Ruler updates cause slowdown when painting We now avoid drawing rulers in the position property setter and use gtk's region invalidation instead. Previously, we were basically redrawing the ruler inside the mouse event handler, which is pure evil. thanks _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address: gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list
