[EMAIL PROTECTED] (2002-06-09 at 2215.05 +0200): is it possible to modify text we just added? Yes... if it is possible,then how can i do that? ...use GDynText and do not anchor, just keep the text layers. When you use the text tools with GDynText on a GDynText layer, you edit the contents. Other text tools (plain one and freetype) do not save the info, so you have to reenter all the data, which is a pain. I am using GDynText for the text of a comic strip, and I can not imagine working without the save info feature GDynText implements (info is saved in .xcf files, so it works from one session to another too).

If I need to modify text that has already been anchored I use the select contiguous regions tool to select all the characters and then do the modifying, like running a gradient over them or beveling. This doesn't work, however, if the text is smoothed or otherwise blended with colors. But not anchoring the text to begin with is probably the best way to go...

Re: [Gimp-user] Tutorial Pointers Page in PDF format (former : Re. Good tutorial in PDF format)
Hi Jeff, John and other guys, Lot of thanks for your continue support. Now I have a collective information I am in a different situation. I have certain knowledge on Adobe PhotoShop, Corel PhotoPaint, KPT filtering, etc. For such a reason I don't expect going through the complete GIMP tutorial, page by page. I only need to download it as a file in smaller size for reference in case encountering difficulty in using GIMP. Anyway thanks again.
