Hello Sven, I agree with you, but wouldn't it be nice to have once on a day something similar to the "file > automation" dialog in Photoshop? There one can choose for example contact sheet or batch processing. In batch processing one can select an action (i.e. gimp-script), a folder for loading the files for processing and one for saving them, and in which kind the naming is to be managed, and so on. I think, this could be something for later plans in the far future.

Hi, instead of just dismissing your suggestion, here's a suggestion for you: Write yourself a simple script that saves a JPEG preview of your image and installs itself next to the Save menu entry.

If we'd do that, next week someone will call for auto-whitebalance on save, adding a border and sending mail to grandma. No way.

If you want, I can show you how to write one, if you be more specific about what exactly you want to do, in your case.

[Gimp-developer] optional scaling in the save dialog?
Hi! I am currently working on a poster, and it's huge (from the point of view of the amount of memory I have ;) ). Once in a while I have to post it to the mailing list for my people to see if they like it and tell me what to change. Every time I want to mail it I first have to save it (.xcf), then scale it down, save as jpg then undo the scaling or just close and load again. So I thought it would be great if there was an option in the save dialog to choose the size you want to save the image in. It could be hidden in the "Advanced Options" or something so that usually it wouldn't bother you. What do you think about this? Should I put up a reuqest on bugzilla for that? It shouldn't be too hard to implement, since it's just one more operation during saving (like flattening or so) and it would require copying the Scale Image dialog somewhere to the Save Dialog. It would save you undo memory, and time. mati ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
