Plug-in defaults are planned but not for 2.0 and it's even unlikely to
appear in 2.2. A quick search on bugzilla would have revealed this to
you.

Use the text tool options. By default they appear right under the
toolbox. If you put them somewhere else, a double-click on the tool
icon should should raise them.

OK I sent a followup to Oliver Rauch with cc to this list. I 
hope we aren't in some sort of gridlock here. 

Would someone in community be kind enough to look at and 
hopefully address items 2 and 3 below?

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.0 difficulties

2004-03-20 Thread John Culleton
1. We don't have directions for including XSane in the new 
Gimp. 

2. The dialog for writing a PostScript file still resets to 
the wrong (for me) values, and I don't know how to set them 
permanently. I want no offsets, inches instead of cm, and 
encapsulated Postscript.

3. The text tool is different. Before when I used it I got a 
dialog that showed me a bunch of typefaces, allowed me to 
select a face and a size, and allowed me to type in a text 
string for pasting in my image.  Now I get a dialog that 
only allows me to import text from a file. I don't know how 
to resize the text, change the font etc. 

Any hints on the above?
