I really don't know *buntu* but in openSUSE: on script icon and then on the pop-up icon allows assinging a different icon. Did you read Alexandre's post? He suggests just setting your lang pref in gimp's preferences and not jumping thru the other hoops. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.orgPhoto Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535@ http://linuxcounter.net ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Now we are forced to use Export in order to save an image in jpg format. Because prior to 2.7, if you edit a XCF, and "save as" JPEG/TIFF/PNG, the image is deemed saved and you can quit without being told you'll lose your work (which is the case, think about layers/selections/paths...). So now "Save/Save as" is restricted to XCF, and if you want to obtain a JPEG/TIFF/PNG you have to export. I believe there an exception to this, if the image is loaded from a non-XCF file you can still "Save" directly to that format. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

[Gimp-user] GIMP 2.7, - 2 simple questions
Thanks a lot. I 'd like to do another little question. I have a Ubuntu PC in Italian language but I'd prefer to work in English GIMP. I saw I can launch GIMP from terminal typing "LANG=en gimp" but is there a way to have the same result launching it from the Icon? Thanks in advance for your help.

Yes, we are :) If you only work in JPG, just think of Export as saving, you can ignore the "save" menu item. Some good reasons for splitting it in two items: I at least prefer having both the full, untainted XCF available at all times, and once in a while I'll export to JPG/PNG, this used to require a lot of maintenance before, now I can just to ctrl+s or ctrl+e depending on whether I want to save or export. Also, when saving as JPG etc. in 2.6, you would get a warning about how layer information is lost. This you don't get now, saving always preserves all information, it is assumed that when you export, you're aware that information is lost. It's a lot more honest, in my opinion. -- Kevin Brubeck Unhammer ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Hi everybody, just two simple questions about GIMP 2.7.4 that I installed on Linux Ubuntu 11.10. 1. In previous versions of GIMP the shortcut ctrl+E allowed to put the image entirely in the frame while now ctrl+E is the command for exporting the image: do you know how to have a simple shortcut to replicate what ctrl+E did in 2.6 version? 2. Why the command "Save as" don't allow to save in jpg? Now we are forced to use Export in order to save an image in jpg format. Thanks for your help.
