 I now select the Move tool (Move the active layer) to reposition.
 
This drops you out of edit mode for the text layer and getting back to it is a 
lot of clicks.I find this a bit bothersome. Also, the move tool is not really 
convenient if you want to grab something very thin, like a font. Hitting the 
opaque area is annoyingly hard.

My workaround is usually to use the handles to reposition the bounding box by 
changing its size temporarily. Perhaps it would make sense to have a move 
handle on that bounding box as well, that would let you reposition the whole 
thing.

 Having someone work on GIMP full-time is something entirely different

 willing to hire a developer and to let him/her work on GIMP full time.



 How about working full time for a short period.

 Could it be integrated with this years google summer of code. if you don't 
 gets as many places as you would like, then the community sponsor an extra 
 place. Or if a student completes their task, but the is still room for 
 extension, then the community sponsors keeping them on for another n months.


I think this is a good idea and am willing to help with the fund raising.

[Gimp-developer] Map Object... always create a new image -- bug or normal ?

2010-01-22 Thread Cristian Secară
The Map Object filter (Filters - Map - Map Object...) has a checkbox
for Create new image. However, a new image always comes up,
regardless of the status of this checkbox.

Is this a bug, or something not obvious for me ?

Cristi
