Thanks, Can you clarify what you mean here by "Resizing the layer window in GIMP "using the resizable grip > area on the top of the window" is impossible.". Are you not able to re-size > it at all (eg, by using the re-size option in the window menu, or the grip or > anything). If you *are* able to resize it, its a bug in the window placement algorithm compiz uses and I need to fix that (though I need to fix that "offset" too I think as well). > A big > problem is also menu bar integration, for which often the upper panel is > to short. That's not something that I can fix.
