This doesn't work with Windows. So the only think you can do is fix it
in the source code, switch to Linux or just wait.

Hi

You should have read the release notes more carefully. From 'Known
Problems':

The Utility window hint is currently only known to work well in the
GNOME desktop environment. 

In order for this to work on Windows somebody have to fix the Windows
backend of GTK+.

It's strange. All the developmental releases had toolbox always on
top. I use Linux and  now it is not on top. The only way I could get
it on top is to right0click on the titlebar and select always on top,
but then it's literally on top of every window, firefox for instance.
Is there some way to enable on top. It's a bit early for me in the
morning. Perhaps I am missing something. What happened to that
wonderful on top toolbox from the Developmental releases? It went
really good with RatPoisonWM because all you had to do was quick
resize the toolbox and it made GIMP compatible with the RPWM.

You say I use Linux now [...]. Did you use something else when it worked?

In any case, what GIMP 2.6 has done is simply to change the default in

Edit - Preferences - Window Management

for

Hint for the toolbox
Hint for other docks

to 'Utility window' instead of 'Normal'. This change in defaults was
made possible with the introduction of the Empty Image Window. Perhaps
when it worked you had those set set to 'Keep above' ?

I guess that you enabled the experimental 'transient-docks' feature at
some point, see http://svenfoo.geekheim.de/2005/05/12/transient-docks/

As this setting has several issues as soon as more than one image window
is being used, the UI for it is not included in stable releases. You can
still enable it by manually editing your gimprc file though.

 Downloading the ICC profiles and opening the EPS in Scribus solved the
 problem. I had to change a few options in Scribus and then export as an
 SVG file. But I got the image in the correct colours now. Thanks for the
 pointer.

So it looks like I spoke too soon. While using the color profile did
seem to get a better result, it is still not the correct colors. Anybody
else have a suggestion? I have downloaded an evaluation copy of

an ideal solution for me.

What do you mean? I used it with 2.6 today. No adaptation needed.

Do you mean a Windows binary of GIMP-GAP? There should be no reason

I am sorry, I should have mentioned. I am on Gimp 2.4 on Kubuntu 8.04.

I do not have a Windows menu, but I did find Toolbox under tools. Even
better, there is a keyboard shortcut already defined. Thanks!

Not sure if this is the problem you're seeing, but note that you can
toggle the toolbox and dock-dialogs with the Tab-key. If you hit that by
accident windows will go missing...

Thank you, Simon, I think that it is safe to assume that it part of
the problem. However, just a few minutes ago the Main Window
disappeared on me as well. No prompt to save, nothing, it just is not
there. I would suspect a problem with KDE or Compiz, but this only
happens to Gimp.

When the Main Window disappears, how to get it back?

Re: [Gimp-user] but toolbox and dock do NOT stay above imagewindow in ver2.6?

2008-10-03 Thread Jan Snyder
Nope, I have never used GIMP on Windows! I only said now randomly. I
think I was just letting know what OS I was using so no one had to
ask. So originally in the developmental releases, the developers just
had it checked in gnome to be always on top, and the ontop feature
wasn't something intrinsic in the new GIMP? That's weir because when I
used the developmental, I seem it remember it being more dynamic, like
the toolbox would always be ontop of GIMP canvas, bu other windows
like firefox would go over the toolbox. This setting in Edit -
Preferences - Window Management seems to just make the toolbox an
uber-window.  Maybe I should go back to the developmental release,
or am I not remembering it properly?
