Hello Dan and Jean,
I work indeed under Windows and as I am the only person working on this
computer I granted myself Administrator privileges. It is strange that
only here there is a different behaviour when logged in as Administrator
or as user, as I can very well imagine there are other instances where
this could be appropriate.
Thanks for thinking along (is this an English expression?)
Best regards
Leo

Leo, you said in a comment on GS Ch11, "Throughout the User
interface, Fontwork is written as FontWork, so should this not be the
way it is written in the guides?"
The UI on my system (US English) does not have a capital W in
Fontwork, so that is why I have spelled it as Fontwork. All the
screenshots in Ch11 have the lower-case W.
You also commented on my statement about adding images to the Gallery
(You cannot add images to the built-in themes, indicated by an icon
of another color.): "This is not true, you can add images to any
theme." Not on my system. If I try to drag-and-drop into a built-in
theme, the image is rejected. If I use the Properties dialog for the
theme, there is no Files page. Is this different on your system?

Is this a possibility? Leo may be running Windows with
Administrator privileges. In both Ubuntu and OS X, the folders holding
the built-in gallery images can be changed by root. Are the privileges
for these folders the same for Windows? (I don't use Windows, so I
don't know.) Just a thought.
This may well be a case in which running Windows using
Administrator privileges may be a very bad idea. Or, there might be
some situations in which it might serve a very useful purpose. In a
server/client situation, images could be added to the gallery by an
Administrator for everyone to have access to them. At the same time,
no one but the Administrator could delete or modify these images. Just
a thought.
Dan
