[Gimp-user] Question about settings colors with the Text Tool in gimp 2.0.4
I'm running Gimp 2.0.4 on Linux and I've got an image with some colored text loaded and I want to create a new image with different text with the same color. So, here is what I do: 1. Load the image with the colored text 2. Use the color chooser tool to choose the color of the text 3. Create a new image with black background 4. Choose the text tool At this point, the color I chose using the color chooser tool has changed to black. 5. I repeat step #2 above 6. I repeat step #4 above Now, I'm stuck in a manual loop. :) So, I figured once I choose the color of the text using the color chooser, I can double click the box with the current foreground color to open the Change Foreground Color box and leave it open. Then I choose the text tool and drag the color from the Change Foreground Color dialog to the color box in the text tool and now I can create the new text with the desired color. Is there an easier way of doing this? Thanks in advance! Peace... Tom ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

It's fixed in the 2.1 series but the fix hasn't been backported to 2.0 yet. Sven ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
