That the text be chopped at the edges of the splash, or that the window be big enough for the biggest string from the start? *My* expected behaviour is ... nothing. I just *think* it would have a better "sex appeal" for the end user who is comming from an other software and who thinks the look is important. Any of your suggestions is acceptable: - text cropped : motly nobody read it as it is moving very quickly - larger window can be *the* solution but you will have to fix/compute and acceptable width. -- Regards - Jean-Luc Cheers, Dave. -- David Neary, Lyon, France E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

I would suggest you start gimp using the --no-splash command-line option to workaround this problem. Sven PS: I am planning to do some changes to the splash window today or tomorrow. Should be trivial to work around this problem by cutting the text off if it's too wide. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
