[Gimp-user] Snap to Guides by default
Hi, two rather noob questions here: I wonder if there is any way to turn off the Snap to Guides option which is on by default (Gimp 2.4), I look in configuration windows but couldn't find how to turn it off. Secondly, when use accidentally click on rulers, the current tool changes to Move which is a pain when you are frantically painting like mad. Is it possible to change this behaviour as a preference ? If the answer for both is to switch to 2.6 I apologize in advance. Best regards malefico. PS: Hope I'm not breaking any rules by asking about 2.4 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

So when Gimp starts it is unchecked ? Regards malefico. I posted a similar question a few days ago and got no from the group/list. My question was about the various defaults in the dialog Image, Canvas Size. Is there a way to control _all_ these various defaults? I can't find an 'rc' file or anything in Preferences that does this. Jay ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Either way, no one was able to help. Such is life on a mailing list. In my case, I simply don't read every message to the list. There are quite a few rc files under the .gimp-2.6 user directory. The gimprc file suggests the global /etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc has options you can override. One of these is snap-distance. Setting it to 0 might simulate removing snap to grid though it may not turn it off. You might also try -1, which is often used to disable an integer value that can start at 0. I've not tried this since I don't need it. You'll just have to experiment. I don't believe there is any configurable data saved for the Image-Canvas Size dialog, which means you wouldn't be able to set this in an rc file. I could be wrong, however. -- Michael J.
