Yes, the concern is that tool buttons *do* have a fixed size, and I really don't think we should scale them. The interface is IMHO better with the resize steps. There is no reason to have non-square buttons, because it doesn't exactly look good or professional. --mitch _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
