Cleaning the 'dirty' flag after export isn't going to happen - there is a user-made GIMP plug-in that will do this for you (it adds an "Export & Clean" type command to the File menu) but the core behavior isn't negotiable :(
Maybe I'll look into the plug in. Save v export is an annoyance (when I'm in jpg editing mode), but not a life changing one.
Tip: From 2.8 (.4 I think) onward will inform you if there are no changes since the last export; the warning message will inform you the file was recently exported so you can use this to make your own judgement about whether it's safe to close. There is however a GIMP plug-in that does an export and cleans the dirty flag, but the core behavior is not -- Stratadrake
It's important to note here that the save vs export didn't actually help me when I lost my edits precisely because I had become habituated to ignoring the save warning (and the solution for me to the transparency issue is to export to png/gif rather than xcf btw). The save/export UI may need more thought. _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
