[Gimp-user] Size of new picture after selection gimp 2.2 vs. 2.3
Dear All, In gimp 2.2 when I selected a rectangle, and after that selected a new picture using ctrl-n, the size of the new picture was the the size of the selected triangle, which was very handy. In gimp 2.3, the size of the new picture is fixed, and is not related to the selected rectangle; this forces the user to find out the rectangle's size, and set up the right size manually, which is clearly a step backwards. Will this be improved (as it was in 2.2) in a new version? -eleonora -- Feel free - 10 GB Mailbox, 100 FreeSMS/Monat ...

No. The behavior of File-Open is intentional, the old come up with old values was not obvious to many users because they didn't reagrd copying as something that could alter the default values. Creating a new image from the content of the clipboard has become more straight-forward in GIMP 2.3, actually. Use File-Acquire-Paste as New or Edit-Paste as-New Image to get there in one step.

Thanks, edit-paste as-new image works well. -eleonora Betreff: Re: [Gimp-user] Size of new picture after selection gimp 2.2 vs. 2.3 Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In gimp 2.3, the size of the new picture is fixed, and is not related to the selected rectangle; this forces the user to find out the rectangle's size, and set up the right size manually, which is clearly a step backwards.
