 I read on pippin.gimp.org some time ago that either *alo was the best
option.  Best is to try them out and use your own judgement.


Enlargement is always a challenge.  I had a discussion once about the
benefits of enlarging in stages.  After all that the thing that I know is
that enlargement is a challenge.

Text tool obeys what is set in the tool options.

The on image window works on selected text.

I noticed this with linear desaturate and switched my scripts back to the
other sometime ago.

A better discussion of this might be found at the developer mail list where
the authors are more frequent.

When saving a JPEG, in the advanced options, there is a toggle to save the
current settings as the default.  That should fix any script using
file-save.  PNG has the same.

The layer will fail to be a text layer after being changed by any tool or
plug-in which is not the text tool.  The text becomes just another painted
layer.

Perhaps a different software will retain the textural information, but not
GIMP.
