No - it has to do with these two items, specifically: http://gui.gimp.org/index.php/GIMP_UI_Redesign#product_vision http://gui.gimp.org/index.php/Save_%2B_export_specification For myself, export/overwrite still seems clumsy when working on simple, one-off edits. OTOH, I no longer have to worry about accidentally flattening my 10-layer composition when saving a PNG and then forgetting to resave as XCF. I'm thinking the long-term gain of not having to recreate hours of work is a big enough carrot that I can bear the stick of forced overwrite/export. I'm still getting used to it though, and who knows - maybe export/overwrite can be refined a bit. Just my 0.02 to keep the flame war moving along nicely ;) Chris _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
