I tried 3.0 RC2 the other day and discovered that the new UI is much less space efficient. It imported my panel layout from 2.10 (which I spent a long time getting just right), and I had to completely rearrange it to get it to fit on a 1080px tall monitor. Very frustrating.
Also, it doesn't detect my drawing tablet.
- thanatos519 2y agoI recently moved from an old Ubuntu MATE to Debian Trixie Cinnamon with 2.0 UI scaling and had the same problem. I overrode this with the environment variable GDK_SCALE=1 for GIMP and was able to more-or-less duplicate the previous compactness. The theme might have helped too - I am using Yaru-cinnamon-dark. Some themes are truly wonky, with objects changing size and forcing re-layout on hover. WTaF that should not even be possible!
- cmyk_student 2y agoHi! Would you be willing to post more details on your drawing tablet (either here or on our issue tracker https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/activity https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/activity). We've gotten a lot of reports that tablets have better support in 3.0, so if there's some regression we'd definitely like to get that fixed. Are there specific areas of the UI that are less space efficient? One of the big changes was switching our GUI library to GTK3, which is suppose to scale better on HiDPI screens. But we had to recreate our theming system as a result, so if we need to tweak something we can try.
