However you can assign to it any keyboard shortcut you want. Well damn. Whether Hue/Saturation is called a "tool" or not, taking it out of the Tools menu will indeed make me assign it a keyboard shortcut. It won't be too painful though - Ctrl-Alt-C is assigned to canvas size by default. I didn't even know that till right now, and "C for Color" couldn't be much more intuitive, so - that's a relief. :D ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

[Gimp-user] ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.9.6 released
Hi, I installed 2.9.6 then proceeded to get my Tools Configuration set up the way I was used to, but I find that some of my trusty old functions can no longer be put in the Toolbox. I seldom use Threshold, but often can be seen fiddling with Hue and Saturation, but sadly the latter seems to have dropped of the list of possible selections. Any chance it will come back, or better still, any chance that ultimately we will be able to put there whatever we want to be at our fingertips?

[Gimp-user] ANNOUNCE: GIMP 2.9.6 released
Hi, It took a while, but... We just released the third development snapshot in the GIMP 2.9.x series leading to GIMP 2.10. This is an unstable development preview and might crash or do whatever. If you try it for work, please save your images more often. For a complete list of changes since 2.9.4 please see the "Changes" section below. There is also a release announcement on www.gimp.org with screenshots and some videos: https://www.gimp.org/news/2017/08/24/gimp-2-9-6-released/ Happy GIMPing, --Mitch Download GIMP 2.9.6 is available from: https://download.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.9/ and from the mirrors listed at: https://www.gimp.org/downloads/devel/#mirrors Please use the torrent, it distributes the download bandwidth across all mirrors: https://download.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.9/gimp-2.9.6.tar.bz2.torrent The checksum of the tarball is: b2d5b5619630288c882a35118e2241e5 gimp-2.9.6.tar.bz2 Overview of Changes from GIMP 2.9.4 to GIMP 2.9.6 = Core: - Make it possible to use multithreading in GEGL and raise max amount of threads to 64. Given how unstable this feature is, any value above 1 should be currently treated as a step inside an industrial microwave oven with the on/off switch on the outside. - New clipboard implementation allows copying/pasting layers and layer groups. - Color tags simplify managing large projects with a lot of layers and layer groups. - The Mouse Pointer dialog and colors applied to images are now color-managed. - Gamma and precision selectors for newly created images. - Never dither when converting to a higher bit depth, or to anything more than 16 bits; don't offer dithering options in these cases. - Default to linear TRC when converting to 16-bit float. - Pre-initialize some babl-based pixel format conversion routines at start-up to decrease the initial lazy intialization cost for some interactions. - Remove max size limitation of 4GB for XCF files. - Support clipboard images in the clipboard brush and pattern. - libgimp calls are now thread-safe. Layers and compositing: - Layer modes' code is now refactored to separate gamma-corrected variations from the linear light ones, legacy modes have been preserved to support older XCF files. UI to switch between the two is experimental and should be treated as a temporary design. - Blending and compositing of layers are configurable separately for more flexibility now, compositing can be linear TRC, perceptual TRC or CIE LAB. - Layer blending color space and compositing color space are configurable now. - Layers created from the GUI and from plug-ins now default to normal mode (not normal-legacy), unless all the existing layers in the image are also in legacy mode. - New layer modes: linear burn, vivid light, linear light, pin light, hard mix, exclusion, merge, split, luminance (rgb), pass-through (for layer groups only). - Make erase mode an ordinary layer/paint mode. - Better performance of HSV-based layer modes. - Rename "Color (HSV)" mode to "Color (HSL)" to indicate the actual color space being used. On-canvas interaction changes: - Refactor on-canvas interaction code out of some of the tools and make it reusable. - Update tools accordingly. - Make on-canvas interaction accessible to GEGL-based filters and use it in the Spiral and Supernova filters as a test case. GUI and usability: - Easily add or remove layer masks by clicking either the layer preview or a new button in the Layers dialog. - Enhance the Layer Attributes dialog to provide the single UI for setting layer's name, blending mode, opacity, and offset, toggling visibility, link status, various locks, color tags. - Add a Save As button to the “Quit GIMP” dialog and raise images on click for easy checks. - Allow to choose fill color when resizing layers and images. - Quick Mask and Channel Attributes dialogs use the new spinscale widget for the mask opacity slider. - Enable grid views of dynamics and tool presets. - Allow to zoom with middle mouse button + control + drag up/down. - For all paint tools, when switching to the color picker mode, don't rely on the exact modifier being pressed or released. Instead, check if only the right modifier is pressed after *each* modifier change, and switch to color picking if it is. - On startup, GIMP checks for duplicate accelerators in menus, and removes duplicates. - Standard (Freedesktop) and GTK+ icons can now be set by the icon theme for a fully consistent style. - Many new icons. - Toolbox buttons do not grab focus anymore, which used to break usage of the Tab key and other canvas-related shortcuts after changing tools with a pointing device click. - Delete Layer/Channel/Path are consistently the last option in respective
