[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.8 Control Panels
I have downloaded several iterations of Gimp 2.8, now up to 2.8.6, and all I get is a blank screen with the menu bar at the top (and the Gimp logo in the background). I don't see any of the toolbars or control panels that all tutorials show as being part of Gimp 2.8. The only toolbar I can pull up is the tall narrow one under tools that just has the basic functions of older versions of Gimp. Am I doing something wrong or is there some kind of block on my computer? I'm using Windows 7 64-bit OS. I also have Adaptable Gimp 2.6.10 on my computer - could that be interfering with anything? Thanks for your help. This is my first post on the list.

Anything is possible, expecially in windows environment. What exactly is Adaptable Gimp as that name is foriegn, gimp is gimp. First thing I would try is *completely* removing Adaptable Gimp, including its personal configuration files. Remove *all* of gimp also. Then reinstall gimp and see what you get. gud luk, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.orgopenSUSE Community Memberfacebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.orgPhoto Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535@ http://linuxcounter.net ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
