Sure, but that's why you'd have a popup the first time you were going to overwrite. If you didn't want to save the JPEG, you'd cancel and save it somewhere else using the 'export as' dialog. -- Best regards, Jeremy Morton (Jez) On 26/06/2011 16:53, Liam R E Quin wrote: > On Sun, 2011-06-26 at 16:45 +0100, Jeremy Morton wrote: > >> Or... export the file back to its imported location and filetype? > For a jpeg photograph that would of course be a disaster - jpeg saving > is lossy, so you could easily damage or lose your original file beyond > repair. > > Liam > ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

For a jpeg photograph that would of course be a disaster - jpeg saving is lossy, so you could easily damage or lose your original file beyond repair.

Re: [Gimp-developer] Fwd: Re: Isn't this behaviour unintuative?
mr. Morton point seems to be correct BUT I don't feel that Ctrl+E should do the same thing as Ctrl + Shift + E. we have 2 different situations : 1) the designer want to overwrite something without the confirmation dialog 2) the same designer want to change the file name or extension 2011/6/26 Jason Simanek : > On 06/26/2011 09:31 AM, SorinN wrote: > >> He doesn't know that Ctrl + Shift + E bring to you the Export Dialog >> where you can choose your different filename AND / OR different >> extension. > > I have to admit, I'm constantly getting tripped-up by that.

I have to admit, I'm constantly getting tripped-up by that. Is there any reason that the FIRST time you hit Ctrl + E couldn't do the same thing as Ctrl + Shift + E rather than _nothing_?
