I try to use the pixels art tools with the mirror symetrie activated ... and wow the brush is not the same in the two side ...

Yes I see something quite similar. There is a problem with the chosen size of the Pixel Tool brush being an even number of pixels in size. Odd numbers work fine. As I said it is similar to your example in that the mirrored brush strokes are larger in width here. Mac OS 10.14.6 with a Wacom tablet. Using the regular brush seems okay, just the Pixel brush is showing this behaviour.

Bug for sure.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

I think maybe what @GarryP wrote explains what is happening ... & may be one of those 'works as expected' things if submitted as a bug.

I have been able to replicate this slightly by putting the origin of the mirror away from a pixel boundary and giving the mirror a very small angle ....

When I tried, and had the problem I had the mirror origin on a pixel boundary and the axis was vertical. The brush size being an even number of pixels was the trigger.

How did you make sure that the origin was exactly on a pixel boundary?
