Re: [Gimp-user] HATE the new save vs. export behavior
I work with the tool from its version numbered 2.4. And I use it primarily as a photo processing tool. I can say that the save/export feature is a very logical one from my point of view as I can be sure that I have ALL THE INFORMATION in the SAVED image as long as I can have only PARTIAL INFORMATION in the EXPORTED image. Have you ever got to redo some hours work when you think that you saved the image but in fact you really exported it only? The features that I really miss are the high-bit color depths and better CMYK and Lab colorspaces support. And I beleive we won't get them faster if we mess the developers in teapot tempests instead of giving them our appreciation. P.S. If you really prefer accidentaly loosing your information you can surely redefine hot keys. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Re: [Gimp-user] Funding new features in gimp - what features would you choose?
Is high-bit color depth and other [than RGB] colorspaces support [LAB and CMYK at least] already implemented or am I missing something? ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
Re: [Gimp-user] Funding new features in gimp - what features would you choose?
Good news! Thank you. Looking forward to high bit color depths support in 2.10. And this makes a road to other colorspaces a bit easier to go either. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Everybody who prefers to lose information when exporting the work to jpg instead of saving it and posesses the skill of reading could find in the manual the way to remap the hotleys.

It's a way faster and richer in opportunities. And there's no save/export problem. Why live with a problem that is so easy to eliminate? Completely eliminate.

Re: [Gimp-user] HATE the new save vs. export behavior
Sorry then. By the way, ImageMagick is a very capable software for image resizing. More capable then GIMP I beleive. It has 16 bit color depth by default (and can do even floating point) and a number of high quality computation algoritms for resampling images to choose from. Sometimes it's faster to type some command line, than finding the way through the GUI. And I do use GIMP either. ___ 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] GIMP 2.10 cannot open raw files
Hi, all! I had updated my GIMP installation to v2.10 recently. After that I've lost the possibility to open raw files. I get the message proposing to install either Darktable or Rawtherapee. But I have installed and working Darktable in my system. Looks like v2.10 just cannot detect it. Also I cannot setup particular raw processing program in preferences. I use Gentoo (stable branch), GIMP 2.10.8 and Darktable 2.6.1. Does anybody have a clue what's happening? Thanks in advance. ___ 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
