![]() ![]() Do you have the same problems with a 640x400 image as you do with a 2560x1600 image? What is the size of the images you work with? I've experienced lag on 100+layer, 1024x1024 images from time to time. ĭo you have any custom brushes installed? GIMP caches every brush when you launch it, so custom brushes will cause a substantial increase in your launching time. None of these things were an issue on my previous computer. The newest update actually increased brush performance, so there is no latency between drawing and the stroke appearing. I've got a brand new iMac here and GIMP launches in 4sec after I click the icon in the dock. This is NOT a "GIMP running on Mac" issue. Woo.įunny thing, btw? Using Gimp 2.8.4 in XQuartz is actually better than the Native thing. ![]() well, better than trial and frustration. WELL CRAP! How would I even imagine that? It took me 4 different builds to finally find one that would give me a hint(the supposed Wacom input devices were first greyed out, then wouldn't appear) and now apparently the solution is downgrade and wait. For instance, brush scale from 2.6 can't be converted to brush size in 2.8." Note Releases for GIMP 2.8 However, the old tools presets are not 100% convertible to the new tool presets. To address the needs to migrate from the old tools presets system to the new one we provide a script in Python. If your graphic tablet doesn't work in GIMP 2.8 as it should, we recommend downgrading to 2.6 until we release GIMP 3.0 that relies on GTK+3 which has fully functional support for advanced input devices. GIMP 2.8 relies on a newer version of GTK+2 that unfortunately has partially broken support for graphics tablets such as Wacom. To make things clear: This is what I get in GIMP, this is what I get in Sketchbook Is this a 2.8 issue or a "GIMP running on Mac" issue? Does anyone have any idea how to avoid this lagging? And probably not a hardware issue considering I had GIMP running smooth on a 4-year-old low-end lnux laptop before. Because of random halts when running, my curves always end up as a series of straight lines, which is really, really shoddy. The software always takes a lot of time loading - more than 15 seconds, usually - and the biggest problem I have is with the lagging. Now that version 2.8 is native I thought things would be a lot better than having to run XQuartz behind, but as it turns out. Because reorganizing my whole modus operandi in other software is always a pain - and sometimes impossible - I've been trying to get GIMP to work on my Macbook pretty much ever since I got the Mac(about last August). ![]()
