Hello Sven and All - >I don't think that this is information that the user should be worrying >about. Especially since most users nowadays are probably using a >TrueColor visual anyway. I agree that this information isn't terribly useful to the user and that the details of how the visual classes differ are far too esoteric. In fact, I have dragged my feet about defining it for the same reason. But I have noticed some confusion in the documentation itself, so I thought that a few words about it might be a good idea. Not all Gimp users are going to be programming experts. >No, there is no X server involved and there are differences but these >differences are far beyond what belongs into the user manual. OK, thank you. I'm not sure where to look up this information, so I do appreciate your response. >Note that the development version of GIMP doesn't even show the visual >type in the Info window any longer. So, if you want my advice on this, >remove this part from the user manual as well. Thank you for that information, too. It does seem that the True Color description is not worthwhile at this point.
