Sometimes it seems to be necessary to center the focus on a specific detail. Now it would be good to find out why this was necessary at all. Could you start GIMP from a terminal with the GIMP_DEBUG environment variable set to the value help and send us the output you get when you press the F1 key?

[Gimp-user] Free select tool in 2.6
I recently upgraded from Gimp 2.4.3 to 2.6.8. The free select tool has changed to allow polygon edges and this also now requires that the stop point be extremely close to the start point in order to close the area when dragging the cursor. Is there a way to re-establish the old behavior so that holding down the left mouse button and dragging the cursor to define a region will automatically close when the mouse button is released? There is no mention of this in the manual. Thanks. -- Jeffery Small ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

[Gimp-user] MIssing .orf
I installed openSUSE 11.3 and Gimp 2.6.8 was installed. To my surprise the possibility to convert .orf files was gone!! Is it possible to install that as an add-on or plug-in?

[Gimp-user] How do I apply the same layer mask to multiple images?
I want to apply the same layer mask to 8 to 12 tiff images. It's a simple alpha mask to turn a portion of the tiff images transparent. I have saved the alpha mask as a tiff file. Should I save it as another type of file? The I can open the layer mask file as a layer and apply it one by one to each image. But that's a lot of repetitious clicking and pointing. What would be a better faster way to do this? ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
