What are you using?

Here with Mdk10 download edition and the default window manager, the same thing 
happens to me.

I switched to icewm and all came good again?

I note Sven's answer and will investigate how to chose another theme, not particularly 
obvious on this installation.

depending on how you have things configured, if you bring the image
window to the top by clicking on the image face, the layer you clicked
on might now be the active layer.

did you click on the center of the image window or on the title bar?

Your GTK+ theme is severily broken. Of course the active item in the
list view is supposed to be visible when the window is unfocused.
Please choose a different theme for gtk+2 applications.

Check the move tool options. You probably don't have "Pick a Layer or
Guide to Move" selected.

[Gimp-user] Questions about 2.0

2004-06-05 Thread Judy Wilson
I have a couple  of questions about differences in 2.0

1. When selecting a layer in the layer dialog, the bar is blue. But
the blue bar disappers in the layer dialog when you make the image
active again. What in the layer dialog then indicates the active
layer? Or do I just know because of the border in the image?

2.When adding guidelines, they cannot be moved by using the move tool
and having it change to a hand. Any way to move them?

I have looked at the manual, and can't find these answers. Not
complaining, I really appreciate all the work done on the Gimp by
volunteers!!
