[Gimp-user] About bad new save export function in Gimp-2.8
Hi State of mind ... I am willing to change things if it is an improvement but if the change causes a regression, I do not see the point unless I was masochistic. For people to understand: I spent a lot of time experimenting on my Linux system new programs, new functions, with bugs. It was for a noble cause, to move forward, to try to advance. To return to Gimp, new features save and export interfere with work and must return to standard Gimp-2.6 and all other publishers. Developers gentlemen, thank you for listening to the users who actually use Gimp to work. Listen to their needs. Practice, there is all that counts and not the theoretical ideas completely divorced from reality.

If you're masochistic, go to the gimp-devel archives and read the threads on that topic. We also got a lot of positive feedback on the change. It seems we're not really completely divorced from reality with the change. For now we're sticking to the new behaviour. Sorry if you don't like that.

Just because the English doesn't meet your standards doesn't mean the viewpoint is invalid. And maybe your refusal to see the thought in the message is the root of the discord.

[Gimp-user] Latest update on Debian Sid
Debian updated GIMP this morning (2.8.2) and I notice that after cropping an image, the crop lines remain on the picture. Is this a bug or a feature ? ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

See, here you're disregarding my assertion that we got a lot of positive feedback, Alexandre even pointed to a small part of it for e.g. you to read up on it. The picture just is not as clear-cut as you seem to believe. We had a workflow in Gimp that actually caused people to lose their work. We fixed it. There is no way we're going to reintroduce it, just due to some people reacting negatively to the change, while simultaneously questioning our common sense.

Agreed, Alexandre. Just that trying to pass one's own judgement as a community's judgement is a really ugly thing, that needs to be denounced. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
