The only fix (more of a workaround really) I've been able to figure out for this is to disable Single Window mode In Gimp's Windows Menu. Then Script-Fu dialogs will appear the way they're supposed to. I've tested this on Win7 32 & 64 bit. I'm surprised no one has responded to this...and I can't believe it hasn't been fixed. When I first started with Gimp it confused the crap out of me until I realized what was happening. I can easily see this discouraging newbies and cause them to abandon Gimp altogether. And of course, for common tasks this can be a maddening issue. -- Nightowl4272 (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
