DOH! Because to _crop_ a image in ImageMagick, one would have to open it in a graphic program, measure the points where he wants the crop to occur, write down the parameters and then issue the command to do so. Seems a good reason for me. Valmor, if you need 16bpp you should use either Krita or cinepaint. (Beware that instaling cinepaint may brake gimp-python scripting system) js -><- ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
