[Bug 283115] Re: gimp 2.6: toolbox windows can't be minimized
Found a little gem in the documentation: Press TAB in an Image window to toggle the visibility of the docks. This is useful if the docks hide a portion of the image Window. You can quickly hide all the docks, do your work, then display all the docs again. Pressing TAB inside a dock to navigate through the dock. above point 2.3.2 - http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-concepts-docks.html AND this still works in GIMP 2.8.2 === seems Wilbur is a little genie === This information was added to our local ubuntu-wiki by myself in order to encourage anyone to write read documentation.

Must apologize, commiting a fix is something else, than what I did. It was just a description of programm handling, within the given measures a described in the online documention. Therefor I changed the status back to new because it won't change the programm, neither is it a patch to it. Users may try to use it, or revert it back to the standard it.

[Bug 283115] Re: gimp 2.6: toolbox windows can't be minimized
These docks definetly have a close-button. I think everybody can agree on that. Let's pick another example the graphical window of su is called gksu. There ain't no max-min-close-buttons at all, once the window appears, just cancel and esc. The big thing here is really, that all three windows are to be treated separately. Whatever philosophy is behind this design idea. So somehow or another I think this is, were design comes to battle between philosophy in usage against usability. There will may be always a bit of overlapping, most politely expressed. As said before for me it works and I'm happy with my discovery. And I'm happy I can move them to another workspace, and furthermore I'm happy there is enough space 4 my graphics . But I were looking for a solution since quite a bit of time. So this one has found an entry into our local Ubuntu-Wiki. Don't ask me how to I struggled to understand everything I can adjust in VLC (probably i'm not around all yet) Cheers -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gimp in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283115 Title: gimp 2.6: toolbox windows can't be minimized -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 283115] Re: gimp 2.6: toolbox windows can't be minimized
Far too many people closed these two windows and didn't realize how to get them back. That needed a decision then, not to state these Windows as normal in the Standard-Configuration. Fine 4 me. Window Buttos to the left or to the right, doesn't matter you can influence this yourself as a user with the right commands. (one of the first things I did, after fresh-install of Lucid- I'll always do a fresh-install) 4 the fine old habbits. Buttons to the left starts making sense with Unity-Windows-Manager in Natty Narwhale... Since I know Bug-Tracking Upstream works by now, I am confident this solution will arrive. And yes you are right, it should get closed upstream first... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gimp in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/283115 Title: gimp 2.6: toolbox windows can't be minimized -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Re: [Bug 283115] Re: gimp 2.6: toolbox windows can't be minimized
bug solved - pls confirm ! Indeed for me (GIMP 2.6.8, Lucid, Metacity). However... - I'm surprised that Normal is not the default option, be it only to do without 2-year bugs like this. - The upstream discussion is surprising (including not knowing the versions they speak of) - Shouldn't upstream bug be closed first? - The windows buttons are on the left (doc error) or should be on the right (Ubuntu error).
