The application I am speaking of is being developed by the team behind openusability.org.

Otherwise you are just sorting the terms, not the actual meaning. We should try to avoid that and let users sort cards that have a short description of the filter instead of asking them to sort the menu labels. But certainly your card-sorting prototype can already help the way it is. It just requires experienced gimp users.

[I don't believe it would be sane to say maybe considering optionally having coloured backgrounds/background outlines per layer (to catagorize items, maybe), nor to allow for all the pieces to be stuck in a pile in the corner -- but then again I believe I'm a very insane person. Although that's what I meant, on reconsideration, that would be too much work and looping IMO for such a simple script.] -- ~Mike - Just my two cents - No man is an island, and no man is unable. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

After all, you can have lots of text layers and As a side note, this is actually a very good way of using the GIMP -- I used it myself when trying to solve a puzzle I was given by a teacher. Quite handy! It might help if you bind the text layers to a coloured layer, (either white, or white with an outline, or something), so they're easier to see.
