[Gimp-user] Odd tool behavior: pencil, eraser, and airbrush



OS 10.11.6, GIMP 2.8.18, Huion Tablet Driver 11.0.8.

Problem 1:
I have several custom pencils and erasers. The erasers are 1 pixel wide, 3 pixels wide, and 10 pixels wide. 
All the pencils are 1 pixel wide, but different colors, one of which is the default black.

When I switch from pencil to eraser, everything is fine. If I switch back without  changing the eraser, I get 
the same pencil with the same color. However, if I switch erasers before returning to the pencil, the pencil 
always switches to the default black color, rather than the color of the previously used pencil. This does 
not happen with any other tools.

Any ideas why this occurs and how to fix it?

Problem 2: 
When switching tools the program sometimes doesn’t take the first click on a different tool. May take 
several. Occasionally it will seem to select the proper tool, but when I move onto the work area, the 
previous tool remains selected. 

Is this possibly a tablet driver problem, or something else?


Problem 3:
When I first start using the tablet (not when first connected), GIMP switches to the airbrush tool, 
regardless of which tool was previously selected. It can take several tries to get the proper tool selected.

Is this possibly a tablet driver problem, or something else?
