No Brush Previews

Hi I'm using Gimp 2.8.10 on Mac Mavericks It used to be in Gimp 2.8.8 for Mac I would see the preview of the brush as the cursor so I could judge what the size was going to be now in 2.8.10 Mac (running Mavericks). I have no preview. Just an cross hair and the brush icon. So I have to blindly guess the size of the brush. Is there a way to get this back? I hope someone can help. Thank you. Edit/Preferences -> Image Windows -> Mouse Pointers -> Show brush outline is ticked on. Again thanks.

Hi everybody. Some of you might have noticed, that the latest GIMP 2.8.10 package had a nasty bug. The outline of brushes, pencils, the clone tool and others were not visible. That made it very hard to draw, paint or use the tools accurately. Although the last release only has an age of 3 days, I‘ve made a new package with the fix, because I think many depend on the painting capabilities. So, go to the download page to get the fix. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Have fun. Simone Karin

Thank you for telling us.

Does this bug also occur with Clayton Walkers GIMP 2.8.10 build on OS X Mavericks? This is the first download link at the GIMP download site on Mac, the file is named gimp-2.8.10-dmg-1.dmg

@Simone Karin: if so, can you please submit your patch to us? I couldn't find it in your repository.

Thank you in advance.
