Re: parasite lost ? [2] (quick workaround for gDynText)
Copy the layer by dragging it from the source image to the target one. Edit the source layer and hold the shift key while pressing the Ok button, this will force gDynText to store the parasite data into the layer name. Edit the target layer name and copy the source layer name containing the "dumped" parasite. Yes, I tested. This makes it. Works fine even if it contains Japanese caractors. Thanks. But... let me confess that at first try, I missed to copy dumped parasite and gdyntext didn't work (it crashed ;). FUJITA Yuji [EMAIL PROTECTED]

No, I've tested it with gimp 1.1.22 and it seems you're right! ;) If I remember well hitting ctrl+c on a layer whithout active selection on gimp 1.0.x results in copying the whole layer, while now it doesn't. I think that doing a (full) layer copy between two images is quite important in many cases (and gDynText "parasited" layers is one)!! There's anyone that could tell me more about this matter?? ;) The easiest way to copy a layer to another image is to drag it from the layers dialog to the other image. I am not sure if it copies the parasite information but I think it should if it doesnt already. Tuomas -- .---( t i g e r t @ g i m p . o r g )---. | some stuff at http://tigert.gimp.org/ | `---'
