 to another workspace and return to the Gimp workspace, the focus is no

 longer on the main window, but rather on the toolbox.



 Thoughts?

No, graphics card aren't that important. Every normal modern card should do.

A fast CPU is important and for loading, savings of images and startup

Yes, something like layer effects is planed for Gimp. But even if
there are layer effects in Gimp it is hard to say if we will see it in

 What option do you choose in the Export dialog when it asks you if the
 image should be flattened? The only way I can reproduce this is to click
 on Ignore here.

Yes, I clicked on Ignore, it woks fine with Export

 And doing so is like asking GIMP to shoot you in the
 foot. Which is what the JPEG plug-in then happily does.

What is the reason for the Ignore button? And is it really needed? I
wasn't able to find anything in the help.

Apropos help, I was able to crash Gimp by clicking the Help button
