Hi Jernej, I believe you missed the type-ahead functionality: http://jimmac.musichall.cz/demos/gimp/file-dialog-rocks.avi Some notes about the video which may not be obvious - the focus issues are history and the dialog accepts input even if you clicked on the shortcuts. At one point I messed up and entered the wrong directory. I used the nautilus shortcut alt+up to go up. The new file dialog is a pleasure to use to me, mainly because of the bookmarks. I spend less time browsing deep hierarchies and achieve file-related tasks faster than I used to. cheers -- Jakub Steiner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Novell, Inc. _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
