One way to deal with it would be to have two concepts, active layers and selected layers. There is only one active layer, but there can be several selected layers. When you paint, the active layer is affected. When you free-transform, the selected layers are affected. Whenever there is only one selected layer, that layer is also the active layer.

Not painting at all is not a very good solution if the user clearly acts like he wants to paint. It's better to make a best-guess; if it was wrong, well then the user have to be more specific.

If we would have done higher bit depths before the 2.6 and 2.8 UI changes however, we would have received a lot of criticism for a useless UI instead. As soon as 2.8 is out, we are ready to introduce support for higher bit depths. GIMP 2.8 is currently scheduled for arrival late 2010. Maybe there will be a GIMP 2.9 development snapshot with support for higher bit depths half a year or so after that. The best way you can help with getting high bit depths support in GIMP is help us get 2.8 out, which basically boils down to helping us fix remaining bugs on the 2.8 milestone: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=GIMP&bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&target_milestone=2.8 Regards, Martin -- My GIMP Blog: http://www.chromecode.com/ "Automatic tab style and removed tab title bar" ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

The current goal is late 2010. GIMP 2.8 does not have support for high bit depths. Once GIMP 2.8 is out, we will start phasing out the legacy 8-bit-per-channel code and replace it with GEGL. In other words, we will start for real to introduce support for high bit depths in GIMP. There is no schedule of this work, so a date cannot be given. It is reasonable though to expect this work to go on for say 2-4 years.

Hi, This seems like the first thing you need to grasp about layers: layers are not supposed to be merged, the whole point of layers is that they allow you to divide an image into several independent parts. Instead of merging, you could add a layer mask to the top-most layer and get rid of the parts you don't want using the mask. > It's so tragic that after all these years, GIMP's user interface has seen no > improvement.

Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH is only necessary at configure time. After that it is not necessary since libtool sets the necessary rpaths of the binaries it builds, at least for the babl/GLib/GTK+/GEGL/GIMP stack. And why use a prefix that requires root write privileges? Instead of manually setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, let configure do that. Just put this in /home/user/dev/share/config.site: export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/home/user/dev/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH" export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/user/dev/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" and invoke ./autogen.sh or configure with --prefix=/home/user/dev. By having config.site there is no need to keep PKG_CONFIG_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH globally, and automatic reconfiguration when making after e.g. configure.in/ac changes works without issues. / Martin -- My GIMP Blog: http://www.chromecode.com/ ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

To me, keeping the CMYK profile around and writing it to an RGB jpeg does not make sense; I don't think GIMP does the right thing here. Showing the size of the color profile would be informative, but only a workaround to the problem we're seeing here. I don't want to spend time to patch things here and there with regards to color management though. We need a specification on how color profiles should be managed on a bigger scale, otherwise we'll end up with an inconsistent program. / Martin ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Re: [Gimp-user] GEGL crashes Gimp 2.6.6 on XP
With some help from Jernej I have now been able too look into this problem. It would be of great help if people with crashes when doing: 1. Start GIMP 2. Create new default image 3. Tools -> GEGL Operation... could try to move C:\Program Files (x86)\GIMP-2.0\lib\gegl-0.0\load-buffer.dll into a temporary dir, just so that GEGL does not pick up load-buffer.dll when starting. On my tests on Vista SP2, removing this GEGL operation from the operations GEGL loads gets rid of this particular crash, and I suspect this will get rid of this particular crash on XP systems as well. If anyone is able to confirm that removing/moving load-buffer.dll fixes the above crash, please let me know and report what version of Windows you are using.

There is no version of GEGL that matches a given version of GIMP. GEGL is a library with an API (currently somewhat unstable due to immatureness of the library, but this is beside the point) that is independent of GIMP.

The unit you used to display the image is not saved to the file, so when you open the file on another computer (or the same computer) the unit of the window will default to pixels. One could argue that the unit used to display the file should be saved, but it is not trivial to solve since one image can be shown using different units in different image windows. In any case, to show the rulers in inches on your machine, just change the unit in the statusbar to inches.

GIMP 2.6 comes with GTK+/GLib .dlls. If you have .dlls in a system wide directory such as C:\Windows\System32 these will however be picked up first.

Hi, GIMP not reimplementing core OS functionality, we are using the GTK+ library so that we can care as little as possible about OS specific things. Your point about inconsistent file choosers is still valid but I don't really see a trivial solution. Keep in mind that GIMP's usage of the file chooser is more involving than just firing up a dialog to get a file path. It would not be feasible to maintain the code that interacts with the file chooser for multiple file choosers, at least not with the current GIMP developer resources.
