I see lots of complaints about the Gimp save and export. I've been
using Gimp for ages with this feature. It is entirely logical and I
don't understand the complaining.
In a DAW (digital audio workstation application) you save the whole
project as a session. You export the final file as mixdown
All DAWs work like this. That's why I used it as an example. DAWs
generally work in a non destructive manner and you need to save that
info for later editing. Not destructively export it without saving the
whole project. 2D image editing has many non destructive aspects. DAWs
have lots of tracks
I see all this critique as completely ridiculous. That's why I posted
about it. Gimp is a professional level app and it's free. What more do
people want?
I use Gimp for painting purposes so I end up with complex Gimp
projects with many layers etc so the new save or export makes total
sense. I
The basic problem appears to be that casual users of Gimp who just
want to open an image, edit then save it back to the original format
don't really seem to understand the .xfc format and what that does. If
they spent a few minutes investigating that they would understand the
change instead of
Do you really use it ? Ergonomically speaking, Gimp is now an xcf editor.
Gimp is an image editor that can import or export whatever you want
but has it's own savable format for all the layers and other data to
store for later editing. Hence the differentiation of saving and
exporting.

that allows gimp to open the previous project on
restart. That would prevent work loss.

slider is that MIDI has continuous controllers. This means you
move the knobs and sliders up and down to exact values. You are not
sending a keyboard command. It's really quite ingenious whoever
thought of adding that to Gimp and I bet hardly anyone uses it.

but can used used just as a test. Until I get back into
Gimp for painting again, I can't explain everything.

that can be used to set any brush size at

also understands Wacom pens that rotate. Another largely unknown

Gimp is really a seriously underrated app. Go check out any brilliant
art done in Photoshop and Gimp can do all of that easily.

I found that code change. It's on the net somewhere but I'll look for

Yes, exactly, that is the problem. You can change the default brush
