Currently in Gimp 2.8 the best offering is to create Guides from a selection or by percent. The Guides by percent feature allows only integers for some reason. This should be changed. EX :Try dividing a an image up into 7 equal pieces horizontally. It can't be done without painstakingly doing the calculations yourself (which invalidates the whole point of the feature in the first place). Allowing doubles/floats for percents would fix this.
A separate issue is that the window always appears as a background window. It is never in focus. It always appears behind the current Gimp window, which is contrary to the behavior of so many other gimp windows. Items from the filter menu that create windows get focus, why not this?. This issue can easily be fixed by doing a focus command after creating the window the same ways the filters do. -- zadkey (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
