Hey Helen, THAT sounds like a "bug" in the software to me. I never saw anything like it, in any GIMP version on any operating system. This is definitely not what the "save vs. export" (non)issue is about, it's something else entirely. Right now I don't have the time to dig into the problem at all, but if you can get the GIMP to do this "bad thing" on demand, it has the makings of a formal bug report. :o/ Steve _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
