Hi, To quickly outline today's workflow:
The final output I need is a TIFF with 1-bit indexing, and the source is a JPEG. In detail: 1. Open JPEG with GIMP 2. Do some masking, etc. 3. Save as XCF 4. Some more masking, tweaking, etc. 5. Save 6. Flatten, convert to 1-bit indexed 7. Export TIFF 8. Close image On 8, I get the warning about discarding changes - which of course I ignore to keep the info saved in step 5. I need to keep the XCF in either color or greyscale with extra layers/paths/etc but I also need to produce a flattened 1-bit image before exporting as TIFF. So I'm going to see (and ignore) the warning with this sort of project. I guess I could do a 'Save As' and name it something like 'myproject_flat.xcf' after step 6, but it would be a useless file - I would never need it. I'm not arguing either for or against the 2.8 behavior - just pointing out at least one use case that has (seemingly) slipped through the specification. Thoughts? No flame wars please :) Chris _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
