Right, it wouldn't be hard to adapt the code to do this. But we should nail down a sane API... We could simply bypass the pdb for painting, and just emit "record this" on button release. But maybe it'd be better to have the pdb more involved, I dunno. -Yosh _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
