Re: [Gimp-user] Odd behavior with rotation dialog
Hi, On Thu, 2008-01-03 at 13:00 +, Jeffery Small wrote: Also, a small suggestion to the development team. If you have a value such as 11.20 in a field and I place the cursor between the 2 and the 0 and then try to enter another digit like 8 for a value of 11.281, nothing happens because the display is fixed to two decimal places. I think it would be an improvement in the user interface if we could edit these fields without restriction. If gimp then wants to evaluate the number and round and redisplay it as two digits, this would be OK. But the failure to be able to place the cursor and edit these numeric fields is really unexpected and very confusing until you figure out what is happening. Please inform the GTK+ developers about this. GIMP only uses the GtkSpinButton widget and the logic for limiting the number of digits is implemented there. You may want to check in bugzilla.gnome.org, product GTK+, if there's a bug report for this already.

Put the cursor farther from the image centre todo the rotation, and you'll be able to do smaller rotation increments. You can even activate rotation inside the image, then take it outside (without releasing the button) to have better control. Think that mouse movements are always integer pixels...

However, what stumps me is why, after applying a numeric angle of rotation using the dialog, the rotation changes (jumps) drastically if you try to further refine it using the mouse. It seems logical to me that you should still be able to grab the image and give it a further small tweak with the mouse.

In every case I tried, when I set the correction to any number of degrees and then clicked inside the grid, the grid jumped towards zero. However, when I manually rotated the grid, and then clicked inside the grid stayed where it was. The behaviour was the same in both Normal and Corrective. I am using Gimp 2.4.0-rc3 with Ubuntu 7.10.

The behaviour here is normal (as expected, I mean). Norman, do note that if you click in a way that such that the rotate dialog is cancelled you'll have the behaviour you mention. The rotation (even if you type it in) is not really executed till Ok'd (the button pressed). Jeff, manual rotation after a 20 degree rotate acts normal here. You don't have your ctl pressed, haven't you? That rounds the steps to 15 degrees!

You guys are activating the tool from the Layer-Transform-Arbitrary Rotation menu. I haven't done this in years. Indeed, there seems to be a bug in the Rotate tool when it is being called from the menus. You may want to make sure that this is reported at bugzilla.gnome.org.
