Please upgrade to the newest gimp (1.1.23) or start it with LC_NUMERIC=C gimp gdyntext uses the locale (de in your case) for numeric data and confuses the plug-in protocol.

Re: GDynText is broken ?!?!
you knocked on the right door. i faced this problem before. its a problem with your LC_NUMERIC global variable. the only way to work around this bug si to set this variable to C. example do this: LC_NUMERIC=C ; gimp & it should work. if it does not work, try to unset the LC_ALL variable. unset LC_ALL; LC_NUMERIC=C ; gimp & it should woork.

One stupid suggestion (I've been cought there once): make sure, that you entry your text in the TEXT window. The window with alphabet is NOT the text window, it's only the sample, text window is below. So, if you entry text in sample window, you'll have null text in the TEXT window and only very small empty layer. Alex __ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo!

Re: GDynText is broken ?!?!
Would be too easy No... it seems to be a font problem... the border seems to be way too small... (font size given was 50 pixels) result: a border with a height of about 3-5 pixels ? ??? > check if you are not using the same color as the background. > > On Mon, 12 Jun 2000, Thomas Kleindienst wrote: > > > WAH ! > > I am using GIMP 1.1.18 right now.. > > It seems, that GDynText is broken ! > > > > A new layer is being created...
