[Gimp-developer] A modest proposal...
Friends, ...or maybe not, since I don't know the code involved. But may I suggest rearranging the left most pane in the dialog windows for the file operations open and save as? Presently, when I use either operation, and want to access a location to which I have a bookmark, I'm obliged to scroll down the screen in the left most pane; what I'd propose is to move the bookmarks (if any exist) to the top of the pane, just below the recently used entry. Or, have I missed a setting somewhere that would let me configure the order in which the items in this pane are listed? ns ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

You can rebuild your gtk+ with this patch http://mika.l3ib.org/patches/gtk-filechooser-only-File-System.diff or modify it to your liking, the code is fairly obvious. -- Mikael Magnusson ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

I fixed this annoying mess of irrelevant bookmarks that I never requested spamming the interface in 2.6.something but it no long applies cleanly. You saved me the effort of fixing it again. :) Anyone who finds this annoying please bug report to gtk+ (rather than here) . I did open a bug and submitted the patch but it spat out as per usual . If they realise this is unpopular maybe it will get some traction. regards. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
